🌿💚 Mondays in the Herb Garden 💚🌿
Confession... Believe it or not, I wasn't always a gardener!
In fact, plants didn't stand a chance around me. 😂 Houseplants, flowers... if it needed watering, it was living on borrowed time. Survival of the fittest in my house!
Then one little basil plant changed everything!
Before I knew it, I added another herb... then tomatoes... peppers... cucumbers... and somehow my backyard turned into my happy place.
Fast forward a few years, and now I'm that person who gets way too excited about raised garden beds, starts herbs from seed, and can spend hours reading about the history of herbs and dreaming up new recipes for OklaTalian. Oh... and somehow I became the Vice President of the Tulsa Herb Society! 🌿💚
Life has a funny way of surprising you.
If someone had told me years ago that I'd be growing herbs, infusing olive oils, and encouraging others to garden, I would've laughed.
Now I can't imagine life any other way.
🌱 So if you think you don't have a green thumb... start with one little basil plant. It worked for me! 😉
What's the first thing you ever successfully grew?
PS: This is me...far too excited for my first composting barrel!🤣🙌
