We've been trying to renew interest in adding DG resource links to the "sticky" thread at the top of this forum, and that's brought up the topic of great resources that aren't DG databases, threads or articles.
Admin doesn't like to include non-DG links in resource stickies because of maintenance issues. But if we can gather a bunch of links, Terry will let a volunteer (like me, although if anybody else would be willing that would be great!) organize them into a thread to be stickied to the top of the forum. (The AV & Gessie forum has threads like this... the volunteer maintains the thread, and only the volunteer can unlock the thread to edit the lists of links, so the thread doesn't get cluttered up with unrelated chat.)
Let's help one another out! Please post your favorite websites for great herb growing/culture information, herb recipes, etc. A brief description along with the link will help people find what they're looking for.

Herb Resources outside of DG
Good idea if we will be allowed. Here are a few I had stashed...

Ginger link..

Thanks, Pod! We'll be allowed, these links just won't be part of the first resource sticky, that's all. If nothing else, we'll just keep bumping up this thread, LOL... but eventually, we'll get all these "outside links" organized and stickied the way that's been done on other forums.
Here's one of my favorite places for culture information, especially on rosemary & lavender. DeBaggio's doesn't ship -- not at all -- so don't start shopping in the catalog unless you or somebody you know can get out to their greenhouse (near Dulles airport, west of the DC metro area). But it's still a fun read!
