How to Grow Herbs Indoors

Nothing makes you feel like you’ve reached a new level of cooking quite like ripping into fresh herbs and adding them to your dish. Even just a sprig of parsley as a garnish.

Buying your own fresh herbs has never been easier, but growing your own can be quite do-able, too. Check out these tips for growing an indoor herb garden (and some cute outdoor ideas, too).
