Growing your herbs indoors comes with a plethora of advantages, the main examples being the lack of pests nibbling at your greenery and not having to weed your plants (unless it’s in a windowsill by the garden and you happen to be super unlucky). Being able to to take them from the cradle to the grave during cooking gives you that unique taste which will keep people coming back for more.

One amazing benefit of having a garden is the chance to cook with fresh ingredients. This gives you the rare opportunity to truly know what pesticides and herbicides have been used on your fruits, vegetables, and herbs – giving you a peace of mind that produce purchased at a supermarket cannot. As a health-conscious consumer, the chemicals used on commercially grown foods concern me, and I’ve found that growing my own foods not only eases my worries – it saves me money as well!
