Making room for herbs

A sunny windowsill, a pot with drainage, and a little patience are enough to begin. Let the top layer of soil dry before watering again.

Learning from the weather

Keep a short record of rain, warm afternoons, and the first new leaves. A few notes each week make next season easier to plan.

Slow afternoons

Take a walk, notice what is flowering, and bring home an idea rather than another task. There is always something small worth noticing.
