Herbs are such beautiful plants, useful in the garden as well as the kitchen, so why sequester them in the herb garden? You can use herbs throughout the landscape, in flower gardens, in vegetable gardens (to attract pollinators and other beneficial insects), as ground covers, specimens, and in containers. Liberate them from their traditional roles, use your imagination – and bring them into your daily life. Learn about plants we already grow that we don’t know are edible, and easy ways to use herbs in food and drink.
Karen Bussolini is a nationally-known garden photographer, writer and speaker, and eco-friendly garden coach. Her art background and focus on environmental topics – ecological landscaping, native plants, biodiversity, xeriscaping, organic gardening, planting for wildlife, pollinators, and other beneficial insects – inform every aspect of her work. Slide talks combine beautiful original images, environmental science, personal observations, hands-on experience, and a touch of humor. Her email newsletter, Eco-Friendly News, Views, Clues and How-To’s won a GardenComm gold medal in 2020. She is currently Senior Horticultural Advisor at White Flower Farm in Connecticut.
