Lately, I’ve been craving more fresh ingredients in my cooking — and not just from the grocery store. If you’ve ever thought about growing your own herbs but felt a little intimidated, you’re not alone. The good news? You don’t need a huge backyard or a green thumb to get started. Just a sunny windowsill, a pot of dirt, and a little patience.
Whether you're looking to add a pop of flavor to your meals or simply want to try something new this season, here are a few easy herbs that are beginner-friendly and super satisfying to grow.
1. Basil
2. Mint
3. Parsley
4. Chives
5. Oregano
6. Rosemary
7. Thyme
Getting Started:
Starting small is totally okay. Maybe just a pot of basil by the kitchen sink or a sprig of rosemary on the porch. I’ve found that tending to even just one little plant brings a surprising amount of calm and joy — and it's always nice to snip something fresh for dinner.
If you ever want to chat about local spots to find starter herbs or garden supplies, or just swap plant stories, I’m always happy to be a resource. No pressure, just here to help however I can.
