    I am just starting a herb garden. I am going to use containers. I have a baby crib, to have the herbs in. would it be safe to cover with a blanket and then a tarp over the crib from the snow.

    Hi denise, Cold-hardy herbs such as sage, chives, thyme, will be okay getting some snow on them – but you want to keep the roots protected if growing them in containers. You can do this by mulching the dirt around the bases of the plants and wrapping the pots themselves with a blanket or other cloth. For less hardy herbs, we recommend moving pots inside during winter months. Hope this helps!
