Keeping Herbs Fresh

Many of us in the office have been gossiping about Herb. I mean herbs. As in how to keep them fresh. Our CSA boxes from Morningsong Farm have been arriving with more than generous amounts of fresh herbs: Chives, basil, rosemary, mint, parsley and dill have all been abundant. Frankly, I'm not used to so much fresh herbs in the house. I've grown used to going out and buying any herbs I need from the supermarket where they come in those tiny little plastic boxes and cost way too much. At least with those small boxes there isn't much left over to go bad. Check out this great idea from overthehillandonaroll.com. I will definitly be doing this as the herbs (especially the chives and basil) do not do well in the fridge.
