About the Program:
Cathy will focus on ways the kitchen garden can enhance cooking, especially through the use of herbs and edible flowers. While she has always loved growing food, she’s found the herb garden to be the most useful. Herbs come up first and last the longest. And, growing edible flowers can be eye opening and eye-catching for presentation. Cathy will share the list of herbs and edible flowers that she grows, including lemongrass, stevia, borage, etc. So many benefits of a kitchen garden, including cost savings and less waste! Bring your food questions! About our August speaker:
