Grow your own flavorful, healthy, fresh herbs. If you’ve heard it’s hard to grow herbs in Houston, you’re not listening to the right people! There are challenges to growing herbs in the humid Gulf Coast area, but these challenges can easily be met with the right information.

Herbs can be grown in the ground or in containers, even hanging baskets. We’ll talk about soil, fertilizer and how much sun to give your herbs. Learn which herbs to grow in each season and which ones grow all year long.

What would growing herbs be without using them in the kitchen? We’ll talk about how to harvest your herbs for maximum health of the plants.

As an added bonus, each participant will be able to plant up a container with 3 herbs of their choosing to take home and enjoy.
