There are several benefits to adding some medicinal herbs to your garden and many of them don't require a lot of space. Below are five herbs that you can harvest and add to your medicine cabinet.

Chamomile is a very popular choice for herbal tea, and for good reason. It helps relieve symptoms of nausea and cramps, and also promotes calming and relaxation.

Lavender is another herb that promotes feelings of calm and is often used to help relax and prepare people for sleep.

Holy Basil has been shown to help regulate cortisol and blood sugar.

Echinacea can be added to salves and creams and is popular for its anti-viral, anti-bacterial and anti-fungal properties. When you drink echinacea tea, it can help reduce upper respiratory symptoms.
