FALL is right around the corner and we're prepping now!  In case you'd like to get a jump start, below you'll find our
September Planting Guide
and Fall HERB garden suggestions.

If you have additional question we are happy to help!

FALL HERB GARDENS
 
With just a little early planning, you can have several herbs that like cool weather this Fall.  Fall Herb Garden suggestions include parsley (flat Italian or curled), sage, rosemary, thyme, chives, lavender, Basil, cilantro, and mint. Within a few weeks, you will be rewarded with the freshest flavors for autumn meals.
Cilantro is a great cool-weather herb!

Basil - 60 to 90 days *I've harvested as early as 30 days*
