from the garden

We hope to see you at our upcoming workshops in October and December as well as at our November “New Thanksgiving Traditions” Tasting Party. Workshops this time of year are especially dear to us because of the importance in caring, preparing, and maintaining your vegetable gardens for the next year. Many a garden is neglected in the autumn months and leads to pest, disease, and soil problems later down the road. Please, take care of your garden now for a healthier and more bountiful harvest next year; trust us, it’s worth it!
