What is the proper storage procedure for the herb sage?

First group the sage sprigs into small bundles and secure them together with rubber bands. Each bundle should then be covered with a brown paper bag with slits cut up the sides. Hang the bundles upside down in a dry place, such as the porch, for about 2 weeks. Place the bundles on wax paper and crush the leaves to separate the stems out. Store the sage in jars that have tight fitting lids in a dark place that is dry or in the freezer.
