I spent an hour this morning harvesting the gargantuan bushes of catnip, feverfew and lemon balm for drying and winter use. The oregano needs a healthy chopping too. The harvest resulted in an enormous armful of green and scent. I’ve never had such abundance as we have this year. Tomorrow or Saturday I’ll be harvesting some St. Johns Wort, yarrow and borage.

I only wish I could share a photo but my camera lens is ailing and needs repair…darn it. So I will leave you with one of the happy recipients of a few sprigs of catnip….
