Herbs have always played an important role in our lives especially in improving our health. Growing your own herbs at home makes it easier to use them anytime you need it for cooking or medicinal purposes. They say that a meal or a food becomes more tasty and interesting when you herbs to them especially when they are freshly picked from your own garden. Knowing that these herbs are free from any form of chemicals fertilizers and pesticides, you are assured that what you are eating or adding to your meals daily are healthy. The first herbs was brought by early settlers to America for use as a remedy for illness, as a flavoring to foods, storing with linens, strewing on floors, or burning for their pleasant fragrances. Some herbs were even used to improve the taste of meats in the days before preservation techniques were developed.
Today, herbs gardens were almost an essential feature of pioneer homes. They are usually place in sunny corners of the house to be readily available to the busy homemaker. Herb trio in birch container is just one example of the many herbs that I have indoors. These herb trio is composed of sage, rosemary and thyme, I liked these three the most because I usually add them to our daily meals plus the fact that they can be used for medicinal purposes. I usually place these herb trio in birch container on the windows of our kitchen so that it could still receive the full sun that it needs the whole day while it is easier for me to reach them whenever I need them in my cooking.
Always remember that you don't really need an estate to grow a gorgeous and useful herb garden. Most of these herbs are perfect even when place in a container or pots and planters, they will definitely thrive on your deck, patio, balcony, or front steps, provided you offer them the right growing conditions.
