I have been growing herbs for more than 20 years and this book reflects the knowledge I have gained over that time and the share not only in The Essential Herbal magazine, but also in lectures and programs given to garden groups, libraries and botanic gardens and arboretums.

What is in this?

Check the detail in the very long description, because we don't want to type that all again.

Where do the herbs come from?

We grow all the herbs in our 3/4 acre herb garden in Addison, Illinois. We air dry them, hand blend them and don't mix in anything else.

What goes with these?

Since these are dips, dressings and rubs, you can use them as appetizers, salad courses and main dishes, they go with everything one way or another.

Backyard Patch Herbs was created to bring herbs out of the spice cabinet and into everyday life. From flavorful cooking blends to soothing teas and natural cleaning products, everything we make is handcrafted with herbs grown, dried, and blended with care. No salt, no preservatives—just pure herbal goodness. Our goal is simple: to help you discover the joy, flavor, and wellness herbs can bring to your kitchen, your home, and your life.
