Getting started on your herb garden

So once you have selected a sunny, well drained spot which is well away from trampling feet, begin by clearing away any weeds before thoroughly digging the site over.
Next, incorporate some horticultural grit. Dig this well in as it is an essential element as most of the herbs you will be growing are used to Mediterranean type conditions.
Once the soil has dried and is easily workable start to rake it well. Ensure you remove any large stones or solid clumps of soil and roots. Next apply a little pressure to the plot with the sole of your boots this will eliminate any air pockets. Rake over again gently.

Next step coming soon.
