Last week on Martha Stewart’s TV show, guest Leda Meredith (who’s also contributed to Culinate) suggested a good way to grow herbs all winter: indoors, in a strawberry pot placed near a south-facing window. Leda, who teaches at the New York Botanical Garden, also gives instructions for preserving herbs. Check out "Herbs 101" on Martha’s website for specifics. Find the video segments by going to the episode page and clicking on the segments “Preserving Herbs” and “Indoor Herb Plants” to the right of the page (you have to click on “Next” to reveal those segments).
