I have been working in my garden a lot lately. We may not have had much rain, but the weeds are still growing exponentially. At least it seems that way. I have some really great herbs growing and will have plenty to dry. I prefer to use them fresh, but once the growing season is over, I will have to harvest what is left and either replant some into the kitchen containers or dry them. It isn’t very difficult to do. You just cut them and then use string to wrap them into bundles. Then you hang them up. After they dry out, you can bottle or bag them according to how you like to store them. It’s easy peasy!
Working on the Garden
I have been working in my garden and getting the soil ready for planting. I also bought some stuff for the kids to plant of their own that I know they are going to love. There are these bio dome gardens and such that are designed towards kids. One is a butterfly garden and there is another that is a carnivorous garden with Venus Fly Trap, Sundew Plant, Hooded Pitcher Plant, Purple Pitcher Plant and others in them. The boys will adore that one. I cannot wait for them to arrive in the mail. I would have bought it at the Tractor Supply near the house but they were out and the Walmart near me didn’t even have them. I am certain they will come in soon though.
