It is a fallow time where I am.  So it is a time for seed catalogs and garden plans and indoor plants.  It is lovely to be back online after a long hiatus, I am eager to start again.  Blessings to all.

  I've been a ball of stress,panic and anxiety my entire life..I've had 4 seizures due to hyperventalating in Panic attacks. Unfortunately, I've been taking Xanax more then 1/2 my life... I use all the herbal teas,vitamens and aromatherapys I know for anti-stress/stress relief.  If anyone knows of something that really works that isn't main stream or in the markets, I'd be pleased to know and maybe add to my BOS...Thanks..Brigjtest Blessings to You and Yours...

Oops, I forgot to mention I'm in Southern Ontario. My herbs are lavender, mint, sage and rosemary.

Thanks so much Harobed and Storm! I tried google too, but I guess I used the wrong phrases because I kept finding links for growing herbs in winter. This is my first herb bed, I love it and want it to return good and healthy. thanks :)

where are you?here in Va. it dosnt take much at all since herbs are very hardy,we just cut all to the ground except the evergeen or shrubby ones such as rosemary ,lavender and rue.Then mulch them in. I use  pine tags because I have a pine tree near.

Lavender - Here's what I've found so far on the topic of wintering herbs. Hope it helps! http://www.bellaonline.com/articles/art48760.asp
http://www.bhg.com/gardening/yard/garden-care/preparing-your-garden... (this one has a second page, look for the link at the end of the article))
http://www.ces.ncsu.edu/depts/hort/hil/hil-8112.html this one has a nice table to check different herbs for winter hardiness and two additional linsk at the bottom that might be of interest.
Found these links by googleing 'Preparing an herb bed for winter', the links were all on the first page when I found them, in case your wondering. :3

Good Luck and good growing!

Does anyone know how to prepare your herb bed for winter? I want my herbs to come back next year, but I'm not sure what to do to keep them from dying? Thank!

Simple google search, those links were in the top 5 results for natural japanese beetle repellant. I hope they work for your gardens, Bree and Lavender.
