Also, the preposition 'at' is incorrect here; 'in' is appropriate for 'backyard' (Grammar Problem Type ID: 11). Additionally, the phrase 'easy to care and maintain' is missing the preposition 'for' after 'care' to be grammatically correct.

✓ I also love to grow herbs for cooking without any pesticides, which helps me maintain a healthy lifestyle.

The definite article 'the' before 'herbs' is unnecessary here because we are talking about herbs in general (Grammar Problem Type ID: 22).
