After you have decided that you would like to plant your first herb garden you might be trying to figure out where to start. You will need to decide where you would like to plant your herb garden. You can grow an indoor herb garden as well as an outdoor garden. Picking which herbs you would like to grow will be necessary. Location for the garden and type of herb will need to correlate. Planting an herb that likes the direct sun in a shady location will not result in a successful garden.

Because it is your first herb garden it might be in your best interest to start out small. Pick only one or two herbs that have similar requirements to grow. Once you have had success with those two then you can add more into the garden. Also keep in mind that each herb plant yields a considerable amount of food so you do not want to overplant anything or you might end up with too much to use before it goes bad.
