Basil
Basil is the signature summer herb — bright, aromatic, and versatile. Growing it at home is the easiest way to have a good herb on hand, but local farm basil at a farm stand beats supermarket plastic-pack herbs by a long way.

Fresh Herbs
Fresh herbs are the fastest way to transform a dish. A handful of basil, a few sprigs of thyme, or a tablespoon of chopped parsley changes a plate in a way that dried herbs simply cannot replicate — and local farms grow varieties that never appear in supermarket bundles.
How to grow herbs at home
Growing herbs at home is one of the simplest ways to get more flavor into daily cooking because herbs do not need a huge garden to be worth it.
