Extractions: Inspiring Aromatic Adventures Herbs arouse kids' curiosity and interest because they thoroughly engage the senses. What better motivator for student investigations than plants that feel cool, smell great, and can turn mere tomatoes into pizza sauce? Their life stories, it turns out, are fascinating too. After all, these humble plants were early humans' first medicines, food preservatives, and cosmetics. And that's just the beginning. The word "herb" conjures up visions of soothing teas or the green flecks in spaghetti sauce, but just what is an herb? Some people define it as any plant or plant part used as an ingredient for flavor, fragrance, or healing. Spices, it seems, could fit the same bill. Here's the difference: Herbs are usually defined as plants of temperate climates whose leaves are harvested for use. Spices, on the other hand, tend to be of tropical origin; we use their roots (ginger), fruits (vanilla pods), flowers (cloves), seeds (pepper), or bark (cinnamon). They both differ from other plants in that they contain some active ingredient that is useful to us. But the

Extractions: NEWPORT NEWS, Va. (KRT) - Herb gardens offer special appeal for beginning gardeners, especially if you have only a small yard or patio for growing them. "Herbs are easy to grow, thrive in poor soil and don't require much space," says Shirley Hill of Williamsburg, Va. "They require little care, only an occasional weeding, and require little water," says Hill. "Not only are they attractive, but the colors and scents add another dimension to the garden as well as the kitchen." You can't beat that recipe for gardening success, can you? In addition, herbs, which typically come from the hot, dry Mediterranean area of our world, love heat something we've had in surplus this summer. You can also grow them in large pots, as long as you make sure drainage is good.

REMEMBER, it's up to you to inform your friends, family, neighbors and co-workers that we have been lied-to, cheated, relieved of freedoms, happiness, privacy, civil rights and liberties by the WOD. Hemp prohibition is a political issue driven by big business interests and it's damn well time we turn these policies around through extreme civil-disobedience. Grow it everywhere, they can't get it all... Stop political prison sentences in our time. Bob Marley There are few things in life as good as your own herb, grown by yourself at home out in the garden and indoors in pots... Oregano, Dill, Basil, Sage and other herbs are all easy to grow. Mint will take over the whole yard if you let it. Fresh mint and cilantro are incredible in salads and oriental dishes. But it all comes down to a truly motivational herb that is your friend and mine, a great healer and teacher to those that know it well. Most people think of gardens as a seasonal, yearly project, but it's actually less time consuming and more rewarding to keep the garden going year round. If one were to attempt to grow year round, indoor gardening techniques will be needed at least during winter to keep the garden producing. You will have herb fresh at all times, there is no worry of mass storage through the winter and spring, it requires less space, and once established, requires only minimal attention every week to keep it producing at optimal levels.

The Best of the Rest Fresh herbs have been known to greatly improve your taste buds along with your reputation as a master chef in the kitchen. Few people realise how easy most herbs are to grow. Many herbs should be planted in a well drained soil in a sheltered, sunny site but some prefer moist cool conditions. Place your herb garden as close as you can to the kitchen door or at least next to a paved area for easy access. Choose a site with sun for at least half a day. If your garden is small you can blend your herbs into your flower borders or as edging. Here are some successful ways to grow herbs. CONTAINERS Herbs can be grown successfully in containers provided they have adequate drainage. Containers make it easy to group plants accordingly to how vigorously they grow and the type of care that they need. Because they are portable herbs in containers can be moved into a convenient position outside the kitchen door when they are ready to use. Most herbs will thrive in containers that are at least 15cm deep. However fennel, which has a long root that needs deep soil, and bay trees, which are big when mature, are best in large containers such as a half barrel. Window boxes can be used for growing upright and prostrate herbs. For ease of maintenance grow the herbs in adequate pots. Fill the window box with gravel burying the pots up to the rim. This will make watering easier. Terracotta pots are an attractive popular choice but need frequent watering in dry spells.

Extractions: Herbs have been used for seasoning, medicine, fragrance, and sorcery for thousands of years. Tarragon, rosemary, and thyme are among the most ancient of seasonings, yet there are few culinary achievements that can top good poultry roasted with these three herbs. Most herbs can be grown successfully with a minimum of effort. Several are drought-tolerant, some are perennials, and many are resistant to insects and diseases. They are versatile plants, providing flavors for seasoning food and fragrances for room-freshening potpourri. And with their enticing scents, diverse textures, attractive shapes, and countless shades of green and gray, herbs are often used to make a landscape that appeals to the senses of touch and smell as well as sight. The classic use for herbs in the landscape is the formal garden. Many intricate designs have been drawn and planted using the beauty of herb plants to enhance the pattern of the garden; diamonds, compasses, and knots are among the most popular designs. The knot garden is especially intriguing; herbs with various textures and colors are planted carefully and trimmed neatly to create the appearance of ropes looping over and under each other. The effect is striking, especially when viewed from an upper-story window. Theme gardens are also popular. There are Biblical gardens, scent gardens, tea gardens, witch's gardens, kitchen gardens, and apothecary gardens, to name a few.

Extractions: Tips for the Herb Gardener An Herb-Covered Garden Path Herb of the Month An Herb-Covered Garden Path In addition to their obvious utility of going from here to there, paths do show off separate beds to their advantage, making your garden's design more evident. But half the fun of arriving at a particular garden spot is how you reach it. Crushed stone, pebbles, brick, flagstone, wooden slabs (cross-sections of tree trunks) are popular path materials for reasons of comfort, appearance, cost, and maintenance or choose our decorative Native Texas Limestone Garden Pieces. However several herbs make not only attractive path-covers but are easy to grow, low maintenance, and smell and feel delightful between naked toes. Adding herbs to a walkway that's too difficult to reach with a mower (and too time-consuming to hoe), or to stepping stones needing a filler is a solution, practical and pleasurable. Drought resistant herbs such as rosemary and thyme do well in dry, sunny walkways that would otherwise not support green life. For damp wooded areas which see little sun, most

Extractions: Home About Us Contact Us Membership ... Search The National Herb Garden was a gift from The Herb Society of America to the American people. It stands as one of the finest examples of how a diverse group of people and organizations working together can achieve a dream. For over twenty years, the National Herb Garden has fulfilled The Herb Society of Americas mission to promote the knowledge, use and delight of herbs. The garden includes hundreds of species and cultivars of herbs used for everything from perfume to cooking to medicine to flower arranging. Every plant is labeled, and interpretive signage helps the visitor understand the herbs in context with their history and use. Constructed on a two-and-a-half-acre site at the U.S. National Arboretum in Washington, D.C., the garden was completed in 1980 after fifteen years of planning and fundraising by a group of dedicated Society members. In the end, $200,000 was raised by The Society and was matched by a $200,000 grant from the U.S. government. More than two decades later, The Herb Society of America is still committed to the success of the herb garden. Funds from The Society support a garden intern and HSA members from the area volunteer frequently. Recent enhancements in lighting, irrigation, signage and walking paths keep the garden beautiful and accessible to all.

Will it become an aromatic and scent-filled garden that will attract butterflies and other likeable insects? Will it solve a problem spot?
