THE BENEFITS OF PLANTING A FAMILY HERB GARDEN

Gardening is a wonderful way to connect with nature and teach children valuable lessons about the environment. One exciting home-based project that families can embark on together is planting a herb garden. Not only does it provide you with an opportunity to spend quality time as a family, but it also encourages kids to learn about different herbs and their diverse uses. This article will guide you through the process of creating a family herb garden, from choosing the right herbs, to nurturing and harvesting them - all while getting your little ones involved in a unique family activity!

CHOOSING THE RIGHT HERBS

There are a wide variety of versatile and popular options to consider when picking out herbs together for your herb garden - it really is down to the personal tastes of your household! It’s better to choose herbs that are well-suited to hot climates and can tolerate the UAE’s high temperatures, such as rosemary, thyme, oregano, mint and sage. These herbs have adaptations to conserve water and withstand heat stress. Let’s take a closer look at each herb and how your family could benefit from growing them.

Oregano

Oregano is a resilient herb known for its robust flavour and versatility in culinary applications. Its small, aromatic leaves add a delightful punch to Mediterranean and Italian dishes. Oregano thrives in hot climates and requires well-drained soil. It can handle the intense heat of the UAE and is a great addition to your family herb garden.

Sage

Sage is a hardy herb with a distinct flavour profile and beautiful grey-green leaves. It is highly valued for its culinary uses and medicinal properties. Sage leaves are commonly used in savoury dishes, such as roasted meats, stuffing and sauces.
