Are you passionate about herbs? Ever thought about turning your love of herbs into a little side business to help you save more money in your retirement account? If your retirement account needs a little extra help to grow, cashing in on your love of herbs can help you to make and save more money!
I started down the herbal path years ago, when I surprised my husband by signing us up for a local introductory herb class. We both enjoyed being outside in the garden and the class sounded like something fun to do.
My husband and I liked to try new recipes, and we often experimented with herbs and spices. He had commented that our meals tasted so much more flavorful and looked more vibrant when we used fresh herbs from our garden.
The class we took was a lot of fun as it included a little about the folklore and history of herbs, gardening tips, delicious recipes, and lots of great herbal treats to eat. We chopped fresh basil and made pesto right in class!
The classroom smelled amazing, and I was hooked!
Little did I know that my new hobby would open up some fun ways to make extra money and help me catch up my retirement account . . . . .

We all have a money story, but did you know you can re-write the ending in order to improve your finances? Here’s how we found the motivation to change our money mindset.
Are you living with the stress of debt? My family struggled with debt far longer than we should have before my husband and I finally woke up, changed our ways, and began saving our money.
We struggled through the Great Recession of 2007 – 2009. At that time, I had my own early childhood education business. Due to the economic downturn, I ended up closing my business and sold all my classroom equipment and supplies.

Sharing our money story . . .
Sharing our money story was something I wanted to do because I passionately believe it’s not too late to catch up retirement savings, even after making mistakes (we’ve made a bunch), or starting late (also guilty of this). What I didn’t expect was how much our story would resonate with others, or the level of positive feedback I’d get.
It’s been heart warming to hear that the stories and comments on this site have inspired others. I’m really excited about the growth of this site! It’s gratifying to know I may be making a difference in my readers’ lives, and you can be a big part of that, too.
By commenting thoughtfully, with acceptance and encouragement, you help create a safe space for people to share their questions about money. You can help people re-write their money story!
