You do not need a garden to grow something you can use. A single pot on a sunny balcony or windowsill is enough for a few kitchen herbs.
Choose a pot with a drainage hole and fill it with ordinary potting mix. Basil, parsley and chives are forgiving and grow quickly from small plants bought at a market.
Water when the top of the soil feels dry, not on a fixed schedule. Pick leaves often: cutting from the top makes most herbs grow fuller.
Within a few weeks you will have something fresh to add to dinner, and a reason to step outside every morning.
