April Herbs Important for Food Flavor

Our Small Herb Garden is at the edge of our patio and few steps form our kitchen,


We have perennial herbs that emerge each spring and then we buy annual herbs that are our favorites like basil. Pictured below is the bounty from the Perennial Plant Society of Middle Tennessee sale in April of 2004.
This year the event was held yesterday April 4 at the TN State Fairgrounds. I was not able to go this year and will have to buy my herbs at places easier to get to in my scooter.


(Sale 2004) Ellen pictured with a crate of perennials and herbs and Kelly on the right at the Farmer's market in 2004 thinking about where to plant this treasure in her garden. We have had so much fun going together to different places for herbs and getting into the spring planting grove. The photos below were taken on April 6, 2009 and are the fledgling herbs that by mid summer will be knee or waist high.
