I love the fact that even when there's snow on the ground up here in the north, I can still find some fresh green in the garden. Just walked around outside and found some parsley that has survived the chill. Couldn't make pesto, but if I need a sprig or two for a garnish...
Also, I've found that if I dig below the dried stems I can find a thick bed of oregano leaves growing close to the ground in my oregano plot. And while my chives are gone now, a few stragglers lasted quite a bit into the winter. It's great to throw on your boots and grab some fresh herbs. They are among the first to get going in the spring, as well.
