Wurtsboromountainherbs's Ye ole Yarb Patch garden

Created on Saturday, 21 Jun 08

ye ole yarb patchs inception and why I call myself wurtsboro mountain herbs came about because I am the neighborhood herbologist ….I believe in totaly organic gardening methods and I share all the herbs and food I grow with family and neighbors …. growing our own food is so satisfying ….I know there are absolutely zero chemicals , additives or presevatives so I can feel great about sharing the harvest …Ye ole yarb patch came from a sign that hung on the ramshackle gate that lead to the amazing herb gardens of the old yarb master himself …I learned all I know today about spirituality and healing from him
