Insights
An old favourite for stews, stuffing, and in mixed herbs and bouquet garni, Thyme stimulates the appetite and helps the digestion of fatty foods. It is a helpful companion plant, as it is a great deterrent of cabbage root-fly or cabbage worm; grow the herb close to cabbages, cauliflower, broccoli and brussels sprouts.
