Spring is a long way away still here on The Rock, but after seeing the
icky slime they have been trying to pass off as fresh herbs at the
grocery lately it's got me thinking about growing my own. Since we
bought a house recently i will actually have some real dirt of my own
to plant things in! I was thinking about setting up a small herb
garden.

The most i ever tried before was basil indoors, and it didn't thrive
in my apartment. What would work well in a small plot outside, or
even in a series of containers outside? Are there any that i could
then take indoors and continue to nurse through the winter?

thanks,
