This course teaches many skills for using your herbs, inspired by techniques used throughout history. Many people like the idea of a herb garden, but once the planting is done are unsure how to use their plants beyond rosemary or thyme in cooking. This course teaches you how to use your herbs for culinary, cosmetic, fragrant, gift and home health purposes, covering the many diverse applications herb plants have.
