basil, thyme, rosemary, sage, dill…

So you just bought a few bundles of fresh herbs from a local farmers market, grocery store…or maybe you picked them from your own backyard or window pot…

Don’t let them simply sit in a ziplock bag…

Instead, put them in a vase/glass with water enough to touch only the stems and not the leaves.  This will allow herbs to last for weeks! …you might even get them to sprout roots and you can try planting these herbs to grow more herbs in your window sill.

Winter shouldn’t stop you from planting and growing herbs.  Window light should do just fine for most herbs.
