Harvesting Herbs

I've neglected my garden this past summer, but I am trying to harvest and dry some herbs for use over the winter.

Italian flat leaf parsley here.  I also harvested basil, mint, rosemary, sage, and thyme.  I'll be making and freezing pesto later today with the rest of my basil.

The house has an old cold cellar or crawl space that I'm using to dry the herbs.

I have lots of rosehips too, from my rugosa roses.  Does anyone know how to dry rosehips for tea?
