May I say this without offending anyone. The garage is not a safe place

to dry herbs. There is too much vehicle exhaust and chemical fumes in a

garage.

Hanging upside down is the best way in a darkened dry area in your

house. Out of direct sun or artificial light. Believe it or not a

closet or pantry is the best place. Often basements are too damp and

other rooms get too much light.

An excellent way to dry herbs if you don't have a dark room is to place

them in a brown (recycled paper) bag and hang them from the ceiling.

You won't get the benifits of the wonderful aroma and they won't look

as appealing but it works. The herbs dry and stay dust free.

Oh my Deanna I never thought of that. I'm certainly happy you brought

this up.

I remembered this when you said it before last year. I used to hang

them right by the car. Not anymore.
