Summer Bucket List: Plant an Herb Garden





Since we love to cook, it only makes sense that we plant an herb garden! I went to Taylor Do It Center on Shore Drive to pick up some supplies: A large pot, soil, and seeds. Easy Peasy. I already had a basil plant started in my window-seal. I planted Basil, Cilantro and Oregano.


Can't wait for these little guys to sprout!

THREE WEEKS LATER:
Basil and Cilantro.  Oregano is being stubborn.
