Originally an inexpensive, smallish booklet of the Globe Mini Mag series intended as an overview of growing one's own herbs in-house or outdoors, garden planning & planting, as well as history & usage for 23 herbs*, and finally their harvesting, preparation & storage.



By growing your own herbs, one can control all aspects of their growth, ensure freshness from harvest to use, save money on fresh herbs for specific culinary needs, have a ready-source of personally thoughtful gifting, and fully benefit from the garden's aesthetic qualities (appearance, formality, and scent).



*herbs discussed: alfafa, aloe, anise, boneset, cayenne, chamomile, cranberry, dandelion, echinacea, elder, garlic, ginger, ginseng, goldenseal, marigold, marsh mallow, meadowsweet, peppermint/spearmint, red clover, rhubarb, slippery elm, thyme, valerian.

Please be advised that I have a very slow connection (c.30-60kB up), as well as sporadically connectable state... so things might take awhile to grab from me.
