Lavender's Sage
Let's Grow Together
Welcome to Lavender’s Sage, my public journey into herbal synergy. I invite you to join me as I delve into herbal companion planting, wellness, and culinary delights. Incorporating herbs into every aspect of our lives will not only enhance our gardens and well-being, but transform our meals into healthy, flavorful creations. When paired with the right flowers and vegetables, herbs discourage harmful pests, attract useful insects, and add beauty and balance to our garden and planters. Herbs are known to possess numerous mood-enhancing, health promoting properties and can naturally elevate any dish. Food shortages, unsustainable growing practices, and economic hardships can make sourcing fresh, healthy, herbs and produce difficult. Thankfully, growing our own herbs can be done in a small pot on the windowsill, in containers and hanging baskets on our porch or balcony, and throughout any sized garden. Together, let’s embrace the beauty of herbs, cultivate a bountiful garden, and nourish our mind and body.
