I looooove fresh herbs and absolutely love to cook with them, however oregano is one that is best dried. Now is the time that it is gows tall so I like to cut bunches of the stems before they get too "leggy".
I gather about 10 stems which works out to be about right a good amount of dried oregano for a single use.
then tie them up with the string that I used from the last bunch (just loosen the knot)
And hang them to dry until I need to crunch them over the pot of bubbling pasta sauce....soup...bolognese...mmmm
Time to go sew...
