Window Garden Starter

Fresh herbs on a windowsill connect you to seasonal eating and make everyday cooking more fragrant and satisfying.

Window Garden Starter

Basil in summer. Rosemary year-round.

Best Herbs

Basil, mint, chives, and parsley grow well indoors with six hours of light.

Container Choice

Pots with drainage holes. Saucers to protect windowsills. Terracotta breathes better than plastic.

Harvest Often

Pinch tops to encourage bushy growth. Use scissors — tearing damages stems.
