I love using fresh herbs when I am cooking. It would be lot better to grow your own than to keep buying them.
To have better control over what my family eats, I grow almost all our fruits and vegetables. One of the things that has been lacking in my garden is the herbs to season the food. I just love the herb markers. Time and weather will not make the names disappear and me wondering what I planted. Fingers Crossed!
I want to plant an herb garden, so I can pick happiness for dinner.

Cooking is so much easier it you can go outside and snip off herbs for your dinner. People who use herbs tend to use less salt with their meals and we all want to be healthy.
Fresh herbs add to the meals you are cooking but also to the feel and scent of the room… That is why having a herb garden at home is so great! Plus it helps lighten the weight on the pocket at month end
Herbs appeal to many of our senses. They are visually beautiful with the varied colors & leaf shapes; the aroma when tending and harvesting is so very exquisite not to mention the lingering aroma left on ones’hands; and, the flavors they lend to our foods that awakens the taste buds! Ummmm. good! They are a delight in so many arenas/

Herbs are more fun to pet than dogs and always smell better! It is impossible to have too many and rewarding to carry bits around the garden while you choose what to pick to share with others. People may be surprised by a herb bouquet, but they do like them.
My favorite movie of all time is ” Uncle Buck ” with John Candy. Im definitely not one to watch a movie twice but I could watch this movie over and over again!!!

I enjoy working in my yard, tools are very good to help with the work you are doing.

I love herb gardens & I can’t wait until spring so I can enjoy the outdoors and digging in the dirt!
Having an herb garden is wonderful. Having fresh herbs at your finger tips helps you make every meal more creative!! Fresh chives for a salad or to top a baked potato or rosemary spears to use instead of skewers for the grill or fresh mint to flavor your iced tea — the possobolities are endless!!!
I love herbs! I use them almost everyday in one form or another! Cooking, flavoring oils or using them in facial care or laundry. I would love to win this herb garden prize because as you know your tools make your gardening easier. Having your own herb garden would be less expensive and so much fresher. AND if you dried the herbs what a bonus too. To walk out by back door and pick them is just a little bit of heaven!!!!
I want to plant an herb garden because I love to cook and there is nothing like homegrown herbs!

What a treat!
I love using fresh herbs, it gives such a fresh taste to everything you use it in.
I Love fresh herbs. I have them growing in my front picture window ( to my husband’s dismay – tehe ) during the winter so we can enjoy fresh herbs all season long. I am in a new home and this will be the first season to plant a real herb garden in our new yard. I so miss my herb and vegetable garden that I had in my previous home. I even had a cold box for growing in the winter. Please consider me, I would love to start my new herb garden with new garden tools. Thank you.
I love gardening. It’s very enjoyable to see your plants growing every day like your own baby. And the atmost joy is to use it, and enjoy your own plants that are sure to be the freshest and healthiest and guaranteed to be organic.
I am new to planting herbs and would love to be able to have some success in doing so. I think eating healthy nutritious meals is important and having them taste good would encourage others to plant their own fresh herb garden. Adding herbs to my dishes would make me feel like Julia Child!
I have a small herb garden, and would love to enlarge it to have more types of herbs available anytime I want or need them. Home grown herbs are so fresh and tasty!!
WHAT A COLORFUL WAY TO START SPRING! WHAT A WONDERFUL WAY TO HAVE FRESH HERBS AND GREAT SMELL!!

Can’t wait to plant my herb garden this year. Having fresh herbs handy allows me to use them more often and to experiment with new flavors. Was not able to plant last year and missed the herbs so much.
I love to cook with fresh herbs but they are terribly expensive. It would be great to have more inspiration to create my own garden and cultivate my own. Besides I love being outdoors in good weather. Have a lot of flowers but haven’t tried an herb garden.
I would love to have an herb garden because I am constantly cooking and expanding the flavors. I love using fresh herbs but live in a state that the only fresh herbs you get come from somewhere else. If I had an herb garden in my kitche (which is where I would have it!)I wouldn’t have to worry about where they come from. I would be able to serve my family fresh flavors from my own garden!
i would love an herb garden with a nice variety of herbs so i can try new dishes in the kitchen!
I am just beginning to use herbs in cooking and it would be fun to have them available.
I cannot afford fresh herbs from the grocery anymore since I am on a fixed income and if I could raise them, I think that would be so neat and something that I have done for myself as well. Thank you for the opportunity.
I love to cook with fresh herbs, and since moving into my house in the woods a year ago I haven’t had an opportunity to plant any. This would be a terrific way to get fresh herbs back into my life.
I have a an organic area where I grow rosemary, thyme and sage. I make my own soil to make sure it is organic. I have had alot of cancer and I’m very careful what I eat. Herbs make the foods I do eat tasty and keeps me from using salt. I usually just use my hands to garden, but I have grown older and these tools would make the job easier and the colors would bring a smile. thank you
I haven’t been able to this for a while and looking forward to starting them again this year.
I use to be able to do this garden and will be able to do it again this year.
I would love to show my grandchildren that they can grow their own herbs in the yard.
Herbs add spice to life!!!!!

Love herbs… grew basil last year and dried it. still smells great. Would love to do a bigger herb garden this year.
Why? because fresh herbs are so expensive in the store – for the price of one small bunch, you can grow all summer long.
Thanks for the giveaway!
Now that I am retired, I have time to do the things I want to do. I have always had some sort of garden, but never an herb garden. I just bought a $6 plastic container with a small package of herb seeds (all mixed together). About 15 seeds have sprouted, I am not sure which. This is NOT how to grow herbs. I would LOVE to win this prize. I want to have my first REAL herb garden… THANKS
well pretty up the garden

I want to plant an herb garden, because I’ve moved from Austin, Texas to a small town outside Amarillo and the lack of fresh produce and herbs is appalling!

I am a single mother and a high school teacher and I need some help in getting started with my herb garden! Thanks!!

I want to plant an herb garden because nothing seasons food as well as fresh herbs and the extra can always be dried for later use.

I grew an herb garden for a few years when I was in my early twenties and just loved not only using the fresh herbs, but how wonderful the garden smelled! I keep thinking about growing another one (its 15 years later) but haven’t done so. This would get me moving on that task!
I love growing my own basil and cilantro. I just take what I need…no waste.

Our church has a mission in Hancock County/Sneedville, TN. (The poorest county in TN). They help keep the youth off the streets by helping them learn the basics of life such as planting seeds and using the produce/herbs in their food. If I win, I will donate the supplies to that area.

We just bought a new home with a great big dinner room window with a very large shelf running under it. As I sat in there the other morning I thought it would be a perfect place for herbs to grow. I always have had window gardens this will be my first year expanding to a yard. Wish us luck.
I am very fortunate in that my children are fairly adventuresome when it comes to food (they like Mom’s home cooking). They do not pick herbs out of their food as many children do. To have fresh herbs on hand for my daily cooking would be awesome! Much better than buying limp, not-so-fresh herbs from the grocery store! Thanks!

I love to cook and use the freshest organic ingrediants so growing my own is the way to go

I am a 80 year old grandma who loves to cook big pots of “everything” for our large family, and also the many extended family members who are often gathered around my kitchen table. I have a heavy hand with the herbs and spices that help make delicious sauces – and happy memories. I have two half wine barrels outside the kitchen door for my herbs, but, unfortunately they all froze last year. Planting time here is next month. What a blessing to have everything at hand and ready to go!
I WOULD LIKE TO GROW SOME MORE VAITIES BESIDES PARSLEY AND CHIVES. THE PRIZE IS GREAT.
As a senior citizen and a recent widow, this new project would put some activity back into my life.
Fresh herbs are far superior to dried herbs, hands down. Not to mention they smell so much nicer than dried herbs.
I’ve always wanted to try fresh herbs so this would be perfect!!!
I am trying to eat healthier without drastically increasing my food budget. Growing my own herbs would help with both!
I would love to be successful in growing herbs, as I love to cook, and I use them frequently. The times I have tried to grow them, they died a quick & silent death!!! I have recently read a lot of information that has given me the knowledge that I feel will help me be successful.
I love using fresh herbs in my recipes, but the cost is prohibitive. The stores sell most of them by the “bunch” and often I only need a few sprigs of one kind, & a TBS of another. The rest goes bad before I can use it. This would be so great to win.
Herbs are so expensine,and growing my own would be great, as i could just snip some off as i make alot of recipes that call for them, and this way they would be fresh. That would have to be better.
I want to plant an herb garden to have fresh herbs to include in my delicious culinary creations!
There’s nothing like cooking with fresh herbs and nothing says summer like tons of homemade basil pesto, hummus with plenty of parsley and pasta salad with plenty of Italian seasonings.
My son has congestive heart failure, and is restricted to 1,500 mg of sodium per day. I am having to be “creative” in my cooking to still have a lot of flavor while using ZERO SALT, so I’m working with herbs and spices to up the flavor without further harming his health. My own herb garden would be great, as FRESH beats DRIED any time!
I am so ready for an herb garden. Ive never had one.
I would try herbs more, I like it in eggs but the church needs it more in Tn Hope they win
There is nothing better than fresh herbs in cooking, it makes such a difference! This prize package would be awesome to win!
I have end stage muscular dystrophy which has caused my doctors to place me on a very restrictive diet. I am constantly developing recipes which will provide needed nourishment. Herbs provide important vitamins and minerals which are difficult to get on restrictive diets. My doctors have been requesting many of my recipes for their other patients. I am limited in what I can do, but I can still plant in containers and cook. The cost of many of my specialized ingredients are costly, so purchasing a kit like this prize is not in my budget, but would be well used by me as I use fresh herbs whenever I can for their beauty, nutritive value for myself and others who are given my recipes, and for the joy of Mother Earth and the feel of her soil and and flavor of her bounty.
I have been wanting to start an herb garden for sometime – herbs cost so much retail, but add so much to food – it is a quandry.
I’m a procrastinator, but getting this starter kit just may get me “started”.
I would love to plant these with my 6 and 4 year olds and then cook with them .
I moved recently, and no garden. I need to start from scratch this year.
We try every year but the heat always gets it but this year we will but them in pots and bring them in!!!!
To have my kids learn about gardening & grow my favs for flavor & fresher meals.
To have fresh herbs at hand and not have to hope they have them at our local grocery store.
What a wonderful gift for someone with a green thumb. Love this!
I want to plant an herb garden because there is no substitute for fresh herbs. Raised in an Italian family, my Dad always had a garden and it always contained herbs (lots of parsley and oregano, among others). Even after he was confined to a wheelchair/scooter, he maintained an extensive garden.
I love to cook & the fresh herbs will only enhance the flavors.
I use fresh herbs and would love this prize!

I use fresh herbs in my daily cooking! This would be perfect for us!
My daughter-in-law to be and my son just purchased a house. She loves to cook and has previously grown her own herbs, which she had to leave behind under the snow when they moved. This would be an awesome thing to share with her!

Although I have a garden, I have not had much luck with herbs – maybe this will help!!!!. YEA
It’s not only functional…it’s a work of art. I would be honored to make my girlfriends jealous! Just beautiful!
My neighbor told me herbs growing in the garden would keep the deer away and my flowers would survive through the summer. I cook lots of Italian dishes and love to use fresh herbs.
I would love to plant a herb garden because I live in a small town not real close to any big cities, which means that if I am lucky I can get cilantro and parsley at the grocery store, but that is about it. I love fresh herbs and would like to have a larger variety for cooking with!
I am fairly new to herb gardening. Would like to have proper tools and tips to do a better job. Thank you.
My daughter suggested that I use fresh herbs last growing season. I tried basil and rosemary. I didn’t realize what a difference fresh herbs could make in my recipes. This year I plan to experiment with even more herbs and this herb package would make it so easy.
There’s nothing like fresh herbs in a recipe!
Fresh herbs make a recipe taste so much better.
Herb and Flower garden are the best rewards.
They also are the best tranquilizer at the best price.
Well I am a novice gardener. I’ve only done this for about 5 years or so and I don’t have all the things I need for an herb garden. I usually just write the name on a door shim, there supper cheap and they recycle in the compost. I love herbs I’ve just never had any luck. Maybe with the right gear and seed it will be a better season. Thank you for the chance.:)
I love the idea of growing my own fresh herbs, they are so expensive at the grocery store and not always fresh either. The whimsical design of the tools is delightful. I can hardly wait for spring to get started.
Nothing beats the taste of fresh herbs.
I love having a garden especially when it gets hot and I’m too lazy to go to the grocery store a lot. The fresh vegetables and herbs are definitely more healthy.
The aroma from a herb garden is so theraputic. I would love to have my own herb garden.

I tried this early, and for some reason it did not work out, Better luck this time,I hope,I hope.
I want to use organic herbs for cooking instead of store bought. I am beginner and would love to try.
I just bought my first home & spring is coming. I would love to plant my own herb garden to enjoy in my cooking. I’m so happy here:)

A year and a half ago, I woke up in the hospital to find out that I had spent the previous 5 weeks clinging to life. I was unable to walk, talk, swallow, care for myself in any way. Recovery was a difficult and lonely process. But, today, finds me in a very good place. I am able to function as a full participant where it counts most; as a mom to my wonder boys. Cooking was always something I enjoyed prior to getting ill. Now it is something that gives me a creative outlet and benefits my children. This is a fresh new start. Trying new recipes and experimenting with old standards. Fresh products are key to how I am approaching meals. Herbs make the differences in salad dressings, roasted chickens, Italian tomato based sauces, fresh mint iced tea, even weekend scrambled eggs. An herb garden would be a well used key element it preparing meals for my very special boys. Fresh products are more important to me now than ever before.
The best thing about an herb garden is having freshness at your fingertips when cooking. The plants help the enviroment as well as add decor.
I love to cook w/ fresh herbs. I live in a very rural area so I only shop 1-2x a month, so to keep my food tasting fresh I use fresh herbs. To get fresh herbs I started an herb garden. I’m still learning – a LOT. But I have learned that even an omelet is transformed when fresh herbs are added.
Nothing beats fresh herbs!! They make a huge difference when prepping food! And I’d love to win because I never win anything!
I really like cooking with fresh ingredients, especially when seasoning dishes. They also make the whole house smell really really good.
There is nothing like cutting your own fresh herbs when preparing a meal for those you love.
I just moved from California to Utah and bought a house. I had an herb garden before and would like one at my new house. I’m sure gardening here is very different.
I would plant basil, lemon balm, dill, garlic, and lots of others. I love the smell of lemon balm and mint so I would plant those deffinatly!
Wanting to go as organic as possible as I have Fibromyagia and trying to eat clean to avoid as many toxins as possible. Herbs are great replacements to add flavor without adding preservatives and fillers.
Fresh herbs are so refreshing and they smell so wonderful. At this time I can only grow them in pots but they give me so much pleasure to grow it’ worth it
I;m trying to teach my 3 grandchildren to eat health and how to grow your own. Now a days everything is so high. and it teaches them motor skills and good health
I love the smell of herbs in the garden. Adding them to dishes I’m preparing has added a new dimension to my cooking. They add so much flavor to whatever I am cooking. I like having the herbs available to me in my garden because they are fresher and I can take just the amount I need. So much of store bought herbs goes to waste since rarely do I use a big bunch like you get in the stores.
I love fresh herbs and they are especially pretty growing on my porch. More economical to grow than to purchase separately at grocery.
Nothing is better than going out, plucking your own fresh herbs for feasting!
I love the smell of fresh herbs and the flavor is so much better in my cooking than when I use the dried ones. Would love this!!
Fresh herbs make any meal taste better.
Having fresh herbs to add to all your dishes is wonderful. Having a small garden of it allows you to add delicious aromas and beautiful sights to your “space” as well. Growing herbs yourself, allows you to control pesticides, etc. I could go on and on, but growing things like herbs is easy and so beneficial!
Spring is coming and I’m anxious to start gardening.The beds are begging for company.
A wonderful thing about an herb garden is having fresh flavor at your fingertips when cooking.
I would love to win this herb garden since I enjoy growing our salad vegetables (I’d grow more but am limited on space!). I know how much better fresh vegetables taste than any you can buy in the store, so I’d like to experience the same benefit from the herbs I add to all my cooking! Thank you for this opportunity!
While we all try to eat healthy, we need to eat what tastes good too. Having fresh herbs to add to sauces, salads, and side dishes gives everything a better taste. Sounds good to me! Makes me kind of hungry too!
What a wonderful prize, fresh herbs are the best complement to my fresh dishes.

Love fresh herbs. Usually buy herbs at grocery store for a recipe then end up throwing the rest away.
I love growing my own herbs. I really love walking out to the yard and cutting off want I need. It makes everything taste so much better. I also have people I work with that depend on me to bring them fresh herbs. My little herb garden serves us all well. I can’t wait til the snow melts and spring arrives so my husband and I can plant my garden of herbs.
The tools are cute! I cook with fresh herbs all the time, and would love to grow some myself.
I would love to win this and plant my very own herb garden just like the one my mom used to have.

I love to cook and would love to have my own fresh herbs to use.

Fresh herbs are a great way to reduce salt in your diet and add some zip to your meals.
Herbs are so great to spice up your cooking, but way too expensive to buy at the grocery. If you grow your own and just snip off as much as you need, you know they’re fresh and available. (And these tools are too cute!)
oh my – just in time for gardening!! sweet
I am starting an herb garden and vegetable garden because I have fibromyalgia and have been on an elimination diet for the last month and have felt a lot of improvement. I plan to transition to a mostly plant-based/whole foods diet and would love to have it handy in my back yard!
would love to pay it forward to my small children to do their garden.
With 16 different types of basil alone in my garden, I am always seeing what is out there to add to it. This might just be the answwer to my wishes.
I have started my process of cooking only foods that I grow and of course tasty foods can’t be tasty without great flavorful spices that are fresh. I’m learning to store and package my foods to make them last longer without losing flavor. These products would help to make it easier for me to grow my own food. Thanks for your consideration.. GROWING GREEN
I am now retired and I am experiencing cooking using herbs to flavor my meals for a healthier life. It is amazing how flavorful foods are with natural herb seasonings.
I would love to have my own herb garden because where I live I can never find the herbs called for in most recipes and the ones I do find are extremely expensive and you never know what pesticides have been used on the ones you can find. This is crazy that I saw this today as I just got back home from buying sweet corn seeds to plant in our garden. We have a HUGE garden every year. (75-100 tomatoe plants for starters)

Thank you,
Glenda
I would love to grow a herb garden because fresh herbs make recipes so much more tasty; but they are expensive to buy at the stores
I love to use fresh herbs on homemade pizza and to make my own pesto. Great start to a fun springtime.
I love the herb garden set! Herbs add so much to my cooking, I just couldn’t cook without them. I grow them just outside my kitchen door door and it is so great to just go outside and snip them for yummy dishes.
My husband and I are trying to be more self sufficient and an herb garden would be perfect. We started a garden but I would love to have herbs at my disposal as well.
I love going out and picking fresh herbs whenever I need them. I keep trying new ones every year and have fun with all the different flavors.
I love going out and picking fresh herbs when I need them. I like to try new ones every year and have fun with all the flavors.
This is a beautiful set! Last few years my husband just sort of plopped our herbs in the ground. I’m not sure where or what everything this. I am in the process of creating a whole new garden layout for this year, and these would come in very handy for the execution.
How fun matching gardening tools!
WOW! My own herb garden!
I love the striped color of the tools; also,
one of my late uncles just loved my cream of tomato soup. I used to make it throwing in all kinds of herbs.
Also, I agree with others that herbs are expensive in the stores & I have dreamed of
having an herb garden growing outside my kitchen so that I can go snip some to cook with. I have been cooking with herbs lots since I was in college & beyond.
I like to use herbs in almost everything–especially, meats, salads, some soups, etc.
I really would love to win this.
Sincerely,
Alice G. Craig

I’m 67 and just starting to learn to cook. But with just two of us ( my wife ) it is hard to keep fresh herbs. I’d love to be able to use fresh herbs from an herb garden. PS: I now know how a young bride feels in learning how to cook.
I have been a Type I insulin using diabetic for 54 years and have found that spices instead of salt and sugar give the best taste of all. I would love this herb garden to help me herb my way to continued, fresh and less caloried eating. Can’t you see me outside with my gardening hat and cute tools?:)
I am investing in my very first full fledged herb garden this year. I have done my research about which herbs that I want to have are invasive and will be putting those in containers and and using complimentary gardening techniques to support my entire garden. Now if it would only stop freezing in Oklahoma, I could get everything started into the ground!
I not only cook with herbs, but make my own poultices, teas, and tintures! Having recently moved over winter, I could not take my beloved herbs with me! I really need to jump start my new herb garden. Here’s to hoping I win!
We are in the process of redoing our entire outside area of our house. The one thing I told my husband I HAVE TO HAVE is an herb garden!! I cook every day for my family and I love it!! Fresh herbs are such a great thing to have as they add an important aspect to the flavor profile of a dish. I make my own spaghetti sauce as well as pizza dough, and pasta. There is nothing better in a crispy pizza crust than some fresh basil baked right into it!!
Getting a new property with a fantastic space for a herb & vegetable garden! Nothing better than great food prepared with home-grown ingredients!
I love herb gardens for adding flavor to meals but most important, herbs are the best way to treat and prevent minor ailments.
