At this time of year I always collect my favorite herbs and veggies to dry, store, and preserve for winter use.

This is an excellent and easy way my family, friends, and I can still enjoy the goodness of nature even when the snow is piling outside, hibernating my garden during those long winter months. The flavor and some nutritional value are preserved during the drying process, enhancing my meals from morning to night.

I dry a supply of herbs every growing season, just enough to get me through the winter until I can start planting and growing them outside again. thus allowing Gaia’s energy to keep us healthy and happy all year round!
