Drying Herbs for Health and Well-being

Las year I posted about my experiences drying and using herbs and flowers for health and well-being, have a look here.
This year I'm drying herbs again, using the Transition Sherwood Community Food Garden shed and herbs.

Some of the herbs are foraged, some are from my back garden, some- from my Transition plot, some- from the Shared Herb plot.
 So far this year I have stored (in glass jars of course): elderflower, thyme, Greek oregano, marjoram and lavender. I'm going to share the herbs and my knowledge how to use them with the garden group and during a community event in the autumn.
