One of my most favorite summer happenings happened over the weekend: the Green City Farmer's Market opened! There is just nothing better than going for a Saturday morning bike ride to chat with farmers and buy the tastiest foods I can get my mits on.
Since it is only May, there wasn't much produce to be had quite yet, but there were plenty of herbs for the buying. After a failed attempt at sprouting some cilantro seeds, I figured my chances may be better if I start with some already-alive plants!
So here's my first attempt at little city herb garden. And don't worry, those babies are bolted down to that railing! I have cilantro, 2 types of basil, mint and a habanero pepper plant (the wildcard).
I really want my thumbs to be green, so here's hoping they don't die!

How have your herbs been treating you?? Any luck with them yet?

oooh, good luck. I have my own going. I'll send ya a recipe for basil one of these days. Oh, and just a tip, your basil probably needs a pot about the size of that big one...all for itself.
