I started doing that about a half a dozen years ago, and it’s great! I have thyme, rosemary, chives, oregano, and sage right now, didn’t have to replant. And am about to plant some Italian parsley and basil, as well as a few varieties of peppers.
I’ve been growing herbs since I’ve had a place to plant them-it is one of the skills learned at home-as soon as I have a place with more ground appropriate for planting, I’ll expand both the herb and veggie garden and put up a greenhouse to extend production and be able to grow some medicinal ones that do not grow here naturally.
A bunch of fresh herbs is almost as good a barter item here as homemade wholegrain bread-I use both to trade for eggs, honey, etc
