I do not have an herb garden at all this year or last. Other than some mint that came back. Have been short of funds this year but am saving up for a veggie garden and hope to be able to plant some herbs as well. Trying to learn to become more self suffient by balancing work, with gardening and animal care while staying in a budget.
I would love to have a herb garden this year. Not sure I have the window room as I have other plants there right now, but it would be nice!

Yes! I plan on having a garden this year using cleaned-out gallon sherbet tubs.
I already have an herb garden but I do plan to expand it this year…with more of our meals being cooked from scratch I find we are using more of our herbs too…And buying organic herbs is so expensive so hopefully I can grow enough to last the whole year. That is my goal at least.
I cannot WAIT to start my herb garden this year! I have plans for several different sites
I subscribed to your blog although I though I had already done that before…not sure though…Thanks
I still don’t know how to add a button to my blog…is having your blog listed on the side of my blog as one of my favorite blogs with a link to yours considered a button? If it is then I have that there…
I’m starting an herb garden this year. I’m setting up my light tables to start my seeds indoors as we speak!

I plan on having an herb garden this year.
We are planning a garden this year … but between Dh heart attack and everyone catching the creeping crud … and general scatter brained lack of sleep … here it is deep spring and we haven’t even started.
Might be just the trick to get us all back on course.
(BTW, Dh is recovering at home and continues to gain strength daily).
I’m definitely planning on having an herb garden this year. I’ve had one in the past that was damaged when a family member sprayed for insects, and damaged them in the process.

I started with a few potted herbs last year although we have always had rosemary and basil growing. This past year we added Thai Basil and mint – now this year we have totally expanded – garlic, 2 types of parsley, chives, dill, scallions, chamomile, comfrey, thyme, and sweet ann. It is still early even here in Florida so I am hoping to expand even more with pots all around the patio as well as garden plots!
I have been thinking about planting an herb garden this year. I usually plant basil and chives, but would love to expand. I love your picture with herbs growing in containers!
I have an herb bed the last few years, but am planning on expanding it this year. Last year my wonderful husband was trying to help me and mowed it very short during the very dry conditions. I’m not sure if everthing will bounce back. Would love to win this giveaway to add some new varieties!
HI.:) I plan to have one this summer.
Can’t wait until the snow is gone and we can get our garden going.:)

I have had a herb garden for the last 11 years. I am sorry to say,I learned sage plants live about 10 years. Mine died last year. I am going to have to replace it this year.

I have a very limited herb garden (rosemary, chives & basil) because we live in town and have little space for planting. It makes plant selection for our gardens VERY challenging! And indoor herb option would be wonderful!
I subscribe to your site through email. It’s the first thing I read every morning ~ keep up the great posts!
I have a few herbs growing but I wanted to make an official herb garden this year.

I just bought 9 pots for herbs for me, my mom and MIL for mother’s day. Can’t grow a ton outside in AK so I got the pots for basil at the very least.
Have you linked on my blog roll sidebar.

I tried last year and this year is the I plan to really go for it! Thanks~
My indoor herbs were an utter failure. I believe my cat is to blame. However, I plan to plant in the garden as soon as it gets warm enough; I grew basil like gangbusters out there last year; adding cilantro, rosemary, and parsley this year.
I would love to try the herbs!! Just started our garden for the first time. We put in strawberries, corn, green bean and peas. Looking to add more. Thanks
I have a small herb garden inside basically all year round. I do have a Lavendar bed already planted and will do more herbs as soon as it is warm enough outside. Last year I dried a ton of dill, basil and oregno and we have really been enjoying it. Thanks for the contest.

What an awesome giveaway! I’m had my very first basic herb garden last year, but it wasn’t terribly successful. I’m really looking forward to trying again, and the seeds to get me started would be a great help. Thanks for the giveaway!
Oh, and I’m already a subscriber.
I am looking to start my first ever herb and vegetable garden. I’m on a budget so learning to grow some of my own produce and herbs would be a huge help – plus give me the opportunity to give and donate more to the community. I’ve already started with some tomatoes and strawberries, and I have the perfect kitchen window for herbs – I can’t wait to fill it!
I subscribe to your blog in my RSS feeder and via Facebook. I will continue to try to post this to my FB page, but it has not wanted to load up and go. … Suspect FB, as I’m having problems posting all kinds of things.

I do not have an herb garden, though I do have an almost dead basil plant in my bathroom window that I keep watering in hopes that come spring it will pop back. Probably wishful thinking, so hopefully I can start over.
I already have a small herb garden – inherited part of it when we bought this house and planted a tub of mint last year. I would love to try some of the herbs in the value pack that I’ve never grown before!
I plan to start my very first herb garden this year!

We have a small one started that I expand upon every year. I moved it to the flower bed outside the door last year instead of being in the garden.
One of my goals for 2011 is to start an herb garden. I haven’t done anything about it yet since we’re hoping to find a house to move to here in the next couple of months, but I’d LOVE these seeds to get it started. Nearly all of them are on my herb “wish list.” =)

Hi Kendra,

Hi Kendra,

my husband plans on starting one(Im the plant grim reaper so I avoid the whole gardening thing)
Love, love, love herbs! I tried something new in the autumn. I took a few sprigs of fresh rosemary and thyme and washed them. Then I coiled them inside each of those silicone cupcake/muffin rubbery pans and filled each section with water. Then put this in the freezer to flash freeze. Then I popped out the round ice cubes with frozen herbs inside.
Dropped these into a freezer bag. When I want some fresh herbs, I pull out a herb ice cube and drop it in a bowl of warm water. In 5 minutes the ice has melted away and I pick up my beautifully preserved (fresh) herbs and cook with them. So easy and it beats paying big money for not as fresh herbs in the produce section of the grocery store.
Last year I grew rosemary, thyme, parsley, basil, stevia. Thanks for your site Kendra!
I do have an herb garden I plant every year, great blog!!

We live in the suburbs of Detroit, so… not much chance for an actual _garden_. But I plan to have at least some herbs on my windowsill, and hopefully strawberries outside.
I think its a great idea and I’d love to try it.
I would love to win this as this is the first year I will be planting a herb garden!!
I had an herb garden last year in pots since we live in a trailer. I actually kept most of the plants alive indoors through winter so we’d have fresh herbs to cook with. Though, for almost a month, growing was slow, so we didn’t cut. I’d like to try more herbs this year!! Send me some seeds!
I just subscribed to your blog through my google reader as well!

I do not yet have an herb garden. I’ve always done them in pots. Last year I began an herb bed right off of the back deck. It was perfect…so I thought. The dogs decided they liked to trample right through the bed and use the area for their bathroom.
So, being thrifty minded, we decided that since there was a concrete slab under the current deck, we’d tear up the deck and use the wood to create more raised beds 1 of which is being dedicated exclusively for herbs. Yah! 6′x7′ of nothing but herbs.
I am wanting to have both a herb garden and a vegetable garden this year. Never tried either one, so I am really crossing my fingers and looking forwrd to the spring/summer.

Yes, we will have an herb garden this year. My son laid out a very nice herb garden for me last year, so this year it should look a bit better.

Kendra,
What a great giveaway! We, presently, do not have a garden. I live in FL and the soil is not great for most things. Not to mention, we do not have too much property and, oh the bugs! But, I have been reading on container gardening and actually was going to start a plan to plant a few things w/ my two boys. And an herbal garden is a great place to start with them!
Have a blessed day,
Dawn
I have been reading your blog for months now and, finally, just subscribed!

I started my herb garden last summer. Because we have a short growing season I brought 2 rosemary and 4 basil plants in for the winter. I had hoped to replant them in the garden again in the spring. Last week I noticed some type of insect, maybe aphids, have eggs all over the rosemary and basil. I tried to rinse them off, but I don’t think I got them all, because there are more eggs now. I think I’ll just cut them all off, rinse off the eggs, use the herbs, and throw the soil back in the compost pile.
Since I have to start all over, I’d love the seeds! Fresh herbs make such a nice addition to home cooking.
I subscribe and enjoy the blog.
We are planting our first herb garden this year. My kids and I have been reading about herbs trying to decide what we should try to grow.

I have a small garden started that I LOVE. But I would love to expand it. I want to grow enough to have enough dried spices for the year ahead, if not longer.
Love your blog!
I plan on growing a lot of my herbs in the screened porch this year.
I loved my herb garden on my old homestead and intend on starting a new one on my new homestead. These seeds would certainly help with that!

Have not planned an herb garden but would love to figure out something small! A few packs of seeds would certainly help!
Also, I subscribed to your blog. I figure it saves some time other than randomly checking!
I will be moving so I will have to start another herb garden. I am leaving my garden for the lucky buyer.
I would love to win the seeds. I do Subscribe but don’t have a blog yet. Waiting til it gets closer to the move to the ranch.
I am going to have another herb garden. Last year we grew basil and dehydrated it in my dehydrator. I stored it in a glass jar. It worked out great! We use it a lot in soups. We are getting close to running out, so I am looking forward to growing more herbs. I am getting self sufficient one thing at a time (sometimes faster!!
I would love to win the seeds.
I container garden all my herbs. My veggie garden is on the opposite end of my house than my kitchen (because of the trees and the sun) so it’s more handy to have the herbs in pots on my deck. It keeps them contained and handy! Love your blog and please enter me in the giveaway!
I am planning on a large pot planted with several different herbs this year. I just love being able to clip fresh basil to go with spaghetti or cilantro to top off salsa. Rosemary for baked chicken. I could go on and on. Just waiting now for the weather to warm up.
I’m already subsribed.
I have just built another raised bed for herbs. I have planted clary sage, white sage, creeping thyme, rosemary, chives and alpine strawberries….there’s still plenty of room left…would love to win these herbs.
Yes we want an herb garden. So far we only have peppermint planted. We are in need of seeds.
Fresh herbs are so much tastier! 
I am planning on growing my first herb garden this year…I want one for my spices for foods and a cold and flu herb garden….I need to get busy
I am loving that spring is coming 
and I love your blog!!!
My wife and I are excited to start an herb garden this year along with a traditional vegetable garden. We don’t exactly have the greenest of thumbs , but we get by;) We built our chicken coop and duck shelter that is appropriately dubbed HENway Park and the Waddleon Inn this winter and the gardens will be a fun addition as well.
We moved last fall- and there is NO garden here! I miss my herbs! I need to start fresh.
I would so love to start an herb garden this year! I have never had one and would like to eat healthier!
I’m on my way to Home Depot tonight to pick up some stuff for a square foot garden. Mostly veggies but definately plan to include some herbs! I was so excited when my victory seeds package arrived! This will be my first ever garden and I am sooo excited.
I’ve never had too much success with herbs, but I’d really like to give it another go this year. Hopefully, with some of your advice, I’ll do well. Thanks for the giveaway!
I’m definitely planning to have an herb garden this year. It’s frustrating, though, because I had a nice one at our old house, but we just moved!
I subscribe.
We started an herb garden last year and enjoyed the results as we made plenty of spaghetti sauce with it. We are expanding this year and planning on dehydrating many of them. It is so exciting to use what we grow and feel like we are doing somthing to help ourselves.
I have rosemary and thyme still growing from last year, and hopefully my basil will pop back up. This sounds like a great selection, we’d eat all of those herbs.

I just found your site and fell in love with it. I have added your button to my blog. I tried herbs in pots last year but it was a major flop. I am going to try it again this year but in a different location so hopefully I will have success this year.
I’ve always loved growing herbs, and recently I’ve been wanting to start a medicinal herb garden in addition to a new kitchen herb garden. This would be such a help!
I have grown a few herbs in the backyard garden, froze some of the basil for future use. Love that basil. planted chives and rosemary also.
I plan on adding to my herb garden. I have thymes, lemon, lime, regular and oregano. Will try to add your button to our new blog!
I’m hoping to expand my herb garden this year. I have about 5 types growing so far. Can’t wait for spring!

I am going to have a herb garden but I haven`t started it yet.
I haven’t had a garden before, or even tried herbs, but I would love too. I’ve been following you for a while, and would love to learn.
I have been wanting an herb garden for years. The economy has reminded me of how important gardens are, so I am starting one this year.
