Grow a table herb garden from seeds - PEA BB garden.sand.herbs

This is a badge bit (BB) that is part of the PEA curriculum. Completing this BB is part of getting the sand badge in Gardening.

Nothing beats fresh herbs for cooking, especially ones that lose their flavor easily after drying such as parsley or cilantro. Most herbs take minimal space to grow and can be kept on a window sill or table just about anywhere. Since they recover from small harvests, you gain a year-round seasoning kit. While the scale is a bit smaller than an herb spiral, the principles remain the same.

To complete this BB, the minimum requirements are:
Must not be grown in plastic, cement, porous terracotta, or styrofoam pots containers
Must be started from seed
Must include at least 4 herbs, though they may be in different pots.
The herbs must be at least 2 inches tall or showing true leaves



DON’T spraypaint, but otherwise a useful video.


To document and become certified for this BB provide photos or video (less than 2 minutes) showing the following:
- Describe which herbs are being grown and some of your favorite uses for them
- Show the seeds being planted
- Show them after they have all sprouted
- Show them having grown to the required size
