Grow ready-to-use culinary herbs right outside your door. Available for snipping May to November, nothing enhances a meal like the taste of your own fresh herbs. Create an herb garden that can be moved from place to place to take full advantage of available sunlight. Plant 6 classic culinary herbs in a 14 inch container to grow on a sunny balcony, porch, patio or doorstep. With proper care, your herb pot will supply you with fresh herbs for the entire growing year. Tower Hill Botanic Garden, 11 French Drive in Boylston, hosts instructor Betsy Williams on Saturday, April 22 from 10:30 – 12:30 – $80 for THBG members, $95 for nonmembers.
