There is nothing like picking fresh summer herbs right from your garden to liven up any recipe.

IF only it was only available for the picking during the spring, fall and winter. It actually is possible to have fresh herbs right from your kitchen window stilt all year even when the weather outside is sub minus temps.
 







Simple clippings from rosemary, cilantro and basil can yield into freshly potted herbs for the picking anytime. Let's get started on your new indoor herb garden.  Clip your herbs long enough so the ends sit into a jar of fresh water. Keep changing the water until rooting begins. 











Once the roots looks strong enough, plant the herbs in separate pot of soil near sunlight.  Now watch the fragrant herbs thrive for the pickings.















I have not had any success with the rosemary for the cilantro rooting.  The basil was a success that I ended up planting the basil in an outside planter.  There is still a lot of summer left for the herb to thrive outdoors and I will remember to do my herb clippings before the fall weather is amongst us for rooting and drying.





                     






                                            Happy Harvesting!
