Heard you guys hate mint in the ground


The farm across from my mom plants mint fields every year and it smells divine in the summer

    My ideal lawn is made of mint

    Not at all. I just don’t like mint in *my* ground. I’d love to live across the street from a mint farm.

    I wanna mow that and smell the fresh cut

    Is it just for a ground cover between growing things to harvest, or is the mint harvested and sold?

    Have all kinds of mint plants in my garden, love it for fresh mojitos and cucumber mint water

    Who hates mint? I have my own crop & when it blooms, the pollinators are minty fresh in love! 🐝❤️

    That entire field was started with one plant that just spread.

    I’m sure there’s plenty of people here who hate mint because of how obnoxious it can be…but you’d probably have better luck on r/NativePlantGardening…though some might take serious offense

    You’re telling me they have to *replant* mint every year?

    Don’t….don’t give me hope

    Add some trees…. They have no problem growing in the shade.

    I planted mint in the ground at my ex’s house about a year before we broke up. I often wonder how much it’s grown since then and feel a little bad, but also not that bad at the same time.

    I planted it as a lawn alternative. It can’t escape my yard and the bees love it

    The worst is when the mint gains so much height and stability that the morning glory then moves in and takes it down

    Always wanted to grow a big mint patch in the side yard for kitty to lay in.

  15. There was a mint farm several miles from my uncle’s place and during harvest the smell was ridiculously strong. Even worse is if you disturbed to old leavings left over from the pressing. Just nauseating and I like mint.

    Do you live near a little town called Jefferson?

    Just plant some in the yard and it’ll take over I promise 🤣

    I’d love to know what the harvest/sale process is like. Are they selling as plants in pots? Are they selling as fresh mint as a herb (for cooking etc)? Do they process it in any way (dry, make extract etc)?

    I planted mint in my backyard. It was a rocky patch where dandelions struggled to survive. After one summer that entire corner is now my mint forest and I Iove it
