Did you know that August 29th is a holiday? No? It’s More Herbs, Less Salt Day which in my opinion should be observed all year long. As Americans, we consume entirely too much salt, which can contribute to a plethora of health problems. So why not pull out the ol’ green thumb and get your plant on – for your health.

Thanks so much for sharing my post. Off to check out the others. Sharing!
No problem! And thank you so much for sharing!
I cannot wait until we get moved to our new house so I can have my herb garden back. There is nothing better than fresh herbs for cooking. They are also a great way to make home made medicines.
Very cool! I just started an herb garden with Basil, Chives, Cilantro and Mint about a month back. I'm ready to add some more now!
Good luck with your herb garden! What a great selection you started with.
WOW! This is super helpful, thank you so much for sharing it with me because I'm planning on starting an herb garden here very soon.
Great post! I think herbs are one of the easier plants to start with in a home garden. Especially the ones that you can just keep on a window sill.
My husband has started growing herbs along with his vegetable garden and he loves just picking them to use on salads and all kinds of dishes. They smell so good, too!
What a great idea! I love growing my own fresh herbs and this year has been kind of difficult with moving into a new house and trying to rescue the landscape from two years of apparently nothingness before we moved in. I am trying to build me an awesome herb garden these will be perfect!
