You can grow your own herbs indoors or outdoors. Be sure the final frost is gone if you decide to grow outdoors.
You will need:
Plastic pots (one of each type of herb)
Potting soil
Herb seeds or seedlings
Water
For each type of herb, use a separate pot. Fill the pots with potting soil.
Plant the seeds or seedlings.
For seeds, cover lightly with potting soil and water sparingly.
For seedlings, plant deep enough to cover the root growth. Water sparingly.
Seeds need to be water lightly until there are firm roots. Seedlings should be watered every other day. Place pots in direct sunlight every day.
If you choose to move the plants outdoors, do it slowly. For two weeks, put the pots outdoors for several hours each day.

If you decide to grow your own herbs, you'll want to include mint plants. First of all, they are extremely easy to grow. You will also be able to experience the many mint varieties; there is even a chocolate mint!
You can learn even more by buying a good book on growing herbs.
