Creative Culinary Herbs! 

We're celebrating the world of flavor that herbs add to our lives! Look for special displays, lots of free recipes, 10% off on culinary herb plants, tours of the Cook’s Garden at 10:30 and 2:30, discounts on culinary planters, and special complimentary refreshments.  I’ll do a quick cooking demo at 11:30, using some of my favorite culinary herbs & recipes.  There are still a few spaces left for the “Culinary Strawberry Jar” Workshop at 1:00.  You can register on the website or by calling the farm.
     As part of our efforts to encourage folks to grow food, we’re giving away FREE Tomato Plants!  The Seminis Seed Company sent 5 packets of tomato seeds for me to trial.  That’s way more tomatoes than I want, so I’ve decided to let you trial these new introductions, too!  So, on April 28th, customers (that’s a person who actually purchases something!) can choose a free tomato plant, as long as supplies last.  I hope you will report back to us on their flavor, productivity, and just how well they performed in your garden.  The five varieties are:  Amsterdam (high sugar levels, 68 days, plum shape); Caramba (Italian heritage, large size, excellent flavor, 75 days); Poseidon 43 (pink, sweet, low acid, globe shape, 78 days); Tye-Dye (orange & red; large, good flavor, 78 days); Yaqui (blocky plum shape, high yield, disease resistant, 75 days)
