Tag: Fairy Gardens Herbs
I'm often asked how I ever got into fairy gardening. When I was writing and publishing Herb Gatherings "The Newsletter For The Thymes," I did extensive research on hundreds of herbs. If you delve into the history of herbs and how they were used in past centuries, you will often find references to fairies. This intrigued me. My quest for more information about this aspect of herbs opened the door to a wealth of writings and poetry that fueled my interest and delighted me to no end. I've been hooked ever since. And I've found that the whole concept of "fairies in the garden," is a great way to get children involved in learning about plants and gardening.
