The housing situation is a sh!t show here too, but the state is working hard to rebalance those scales, the roots of this state do not have money (generational locals) and Montana recognizes the effects outside money is having on its true residents. Our outdoor growing season is short, but we're crafty peeps and have figured out ways to grow even during winter. 😁

I would definitely suggest you start by looking to one of the main cities to get a feel for what you do and don't like - Missoula, Bozeman, Billings. The winters can be VERY harsh here, so I would not recommend starting in a smaller town unless/until you know you love it and can handle the sometimes -50's that we get. Winters here can last 9 months out of the year. Me personally, I f***ing love it! I love knowing all of my neighbors, the quiet, seeing the stars at night. And then I travel to fill my city cup lol.

    We bought a thyme start almost three years ago now. It spent most of its time in a raised be with squash and tomatoes. We had to move it to a small half barrel about 5 months ago to make room for this years garden. That thing has been a champ. It just wants to be watered and have fresh soil now at then and it just goes and goes. The little half barrel will not last long so I'll have to find a nice sunny patch to put it in somewhere.
    Now I have to figure out what to do with the lavender that was only about the size of a softball when we got it, and it's grown to the point of requiring a wheel barrow to move it wherever we choose to transplant it. And the rosemary it about to outgrow it's barrel pot.

    Okay - you had me at shortbread. I am in the Mid-west, technically zone 5b/6a, which is a Diva zone - because our winters can act like zone 3- 4 and our summers can resemble 7-8. Thyme can be an annual in my area altho I've had it overwinter and come back for a 2nd season. I don't gamble and start it from seed every year sometime in Feb. I overseed 4 large start cells, then transplant to a large 4 X 2 container. I usually end up with Thyme coming out of my ears - and now I am all over Ana's shortbread recipe. Thank you!

    Great video. We have a lemon thyme in a thick, heavy and large, beautiful, dark earth tone design, glazed planter. It spread to the edges. It wintered over w/o protection 3 winters now. Plenty of sun. Zone 6b east coast. Tip. I used it in a potato salad, perfection but next day the mayo. I make had watered down. . The candy is a must I'll make. No joking. Thyme clears my mind.

    I have a patio and garden paths in Woolly Thyme that I grew myself. So soft on bare feet and it doesn't bloom so no bees will get tread on😊 I use Elfin Thyme around the edges for it's lovely pink blossoms so the pollinators are happy too.

    I have a Common thyme that i planted from seed 2 years ago and it's still going strong even in poor soil. It is starting to flower (zone 10a) but i've been pinching the flowers off and using it in herb butter. I want to grow more thyme variations! Thank you for this video Kevin!!!!!!!! More herb vids please:)

    In my zone 2b, my common thyme and lemon thyme come back year after year. In the fall I just cover them with tree leaves, and it’s always the first to be green after the snow melts. This year I am adding 3 more different thymes

    Where I'm living there is the beed called Kräuterschnecke ( Herbs Snail) it's basically a planting beed that spirals up with different typs of earth and sand ratio in it. The top has mediterane plants with the most sand part in the soil. And as it goes down to the end of the spiral it has more compost earth for plants like basil. Since this beed grows into hight it has one side that casts shadow for herbs that like some more shadow. The thyme is growing like crazy at the top of the Kräuterschnecke.
    PS. If i'm not explaining it very well plz go an google Kräuterschnecke. I'm not very good at writing in english especialy explaining something like this :P

    Our thyme planted close to the house/patio slab in ground survived through some pretty cold temps this past winter in Kc. Orange/lemon varieties of herbs are our favs because it’s something you can’t get elsewhere. Same goes for oregano. A few years ago we did a few types and they were all sooooo different

    I'm in the UK and very allergic to grass. So, when re-doing my garden and searching for lawn alternatives, I decided upon creeping thyme. I'll be planting it soon and cannot wait for the carpet of scent (and the flowers - I got a variety that has white flowers).

    Love the shirt 😀 i haven't planted thyme in 15 years its a beast in garden even in harsh winter conditions. FYI starting thyme winter sowing method from seed easy way to grow.
