Grow $20 of Herbs Each Week – Small Container Garden



If you just have a couple feet of sun and a short season, growing herbs can be a really great value. They are easy to take care of and keep producing each week. Here’s how to harvest them and how you might include them in some fun meals.

  1. Herbs can often be brought inside for a few months to survive winter [sunny windows, greenhouse, mini-greenhouse].

  2. You should put out a veggie cookbook. Those dishes look amazing and I'm sure the fresh herbs put them over the top.

  3. Thank you for that informative and helpful video, Stacey. My favorite herbs are perilla, marjoram, tarragon, Thai basil, yellow oregano, and dill. It would take up way too much space to say what I put them into. I have a very hard time growing dill, however. The bugs always get to it.

  4. Love your videos.  I find them inspiring.  I just had the time to turn up my garden bed.  What part of Northern Michigan?  I have a friend who lives in Northport.

  5. I love all of them! I would have to say my most used herb is oregano though. Being Greek (and vegan… just had to say) I use oregano with lemon and veggies alot. Those sage leaves are massive!

  6. Hi Stacey, I have been searching for another great gardening channel. I just about lost hope, then google showed me your channel. What a fantastic channel well done.

  7. Wonderful video on how to cut herbs, I use an Aerogarden at my condo and this will really help me maximimize my harvest.

  8. Thanks for sharing your information! I am planning to plant herbs in pots so I enjoyed this segment. Thanks again!

  9. Lovely video. I have mint will it multiple If I cut the tops off? 🍃🌿

  10. No cilantro! 😞 Can you do a video just about cilantro, like your basil video that is so good! Thanks! 🙂

  11. I just want to thank you, Stacey. Two years ago I had never done any serious gardening. But, after retiring I decided to get into it. I relied largely on your advise. The herbs, tomatoes, peppers, etc I've grown have been fantastic. i've been told that my basil, which i grow from seeds, and grown under your direction, is the best they've ever had. Thank you so much!!

  12. Stacey! Love your concise first hand info!!! This year I’m growing spearmint and peppermint in two different pots. Well spaced. I absolutely LOVE the peppermint! I can smell it as I walk by! I use it mainly in herbal tea to make iced tea. Today, I harvested the peppermint and it is drying in my oven. No heat required because I have an OLD stove with a pilot light! Perfect for drying celery and herbs. Last week I had Stevia and spearmint in there! Thanks again for the great harvest tips!
