Harvesting, Storing and Preserving Herbs from the Garden

E
njoy herbs all year
round. Harvest herbs
now for garden-fresh
meals and preserve a
few for the winter
ahead.
By Melinda Myers
Snip a few leaves or leaf-covered stems as needed. For the
same intensity of flavor, you generally need two to three times
more fresh herbs than dried except for Rosemary which has an
equally strong flavor fresh or dried. Continue harvesting herbs
as needed throughout the growing season. And dont worry
about harming the plant because regular harvesting encour-
ages new growth which means more for you to harvest. Just
be sure to leave enough foliage to maintain plant growth.
You can remove as much as fifty percent of the foliage from
annual herb plants. This is about when the plants near their
final height. You can remove up to one third from established
perennial plants that have been in the garden for several
months or more. Harvest when the plant has formed buds, but
before they open into flowers for the greatest concentration of
flavor. This is the perfect time to harvest herbs you plan to
preserve.
Use a pair of garden scissors or pruners for faster and easier
harvesting. Make your cuts above a set of healthy leaves to
keep the plants looking good. Then preserve the flavor and
zest of herbs with proper storage and preservation. Harvesting and preserving herbs allows you to enjoy fresh-from-the-garden flavor all year long. Photo courtesy of Bonnie Plants
