Herb Gardening in Scotland
Kailyard Herbs is based on the Cowal Peninsula, Argyll, supporting herb growing wherever you are.
Culinary, medicinal, aromatic and household herbs for your garden in Scotland. We help gardeners, community projects, and small businesses introduce more herbs into their gardens and beyond. And gain confidence in growing and using them too.
