Grow
Your Own Salads!
Going green can be
very easy, and we can help. One easy way to begin is to grow some of your
own vegetables! Certain varieties of herbs, vegetables and flowers are
easily grown by seed. Others are more difficult to start, so it would be
much easier to buy your plants from us. Cool season veggies like lettuce,
spinach, and peas can be started in the garden once you are able to work up
the soil. However, once the temps warm up they tend to lose their flavor, so
use that spot to grow a crop of green beans! A great time to get the rest of
your vegetables and flowers planted is usually about the second weekend in
May. These may be onions, tomatoes and peppers, plus cosmos or zinnias.
Try some
edible flowers for your salads as well. Nasturtiums taste like a radish,
while chive flowers have a mild onion flavor.

the best gardens, ever!
