My New Herb Garden - chef Perry

​My first attempt at growing an herb garden began five days ago.  I have never been one to have a so-called “green thumb”, but I have wanted an herb and vegetable garden for some time now.  My Christmas present from my husband was that he would build me a planter box.   I suggested a kit or a partially-assembled box, but he wanted to do everything by hand.  Due to life and busy schedules, the planter was finished four months later.  But holy cow is looked great! 

 
I planted cilantro, mint, basil, mixed lettuces, and a strawberry plant.  I am excited to give this a go and I will keep you updated on the progress and hopefully will have photos of healthy plants growing.  I am also excited to use my own grown herbs in recipes and will provide delicious uses for the ingredients. ​
