CUTTING GARDEN: Today you may pick small bouquets of flowers from the cutting garden directly behind the greenhouse across from the barn, and from the perennial flower beds which are in the field past the perennial herbs.
We've cut back most of the perennial herbs to promote future growth, but there is still sage available in that bed. You may continue to cut bunches of parsley. There is now plenty of basil Genovese, lemon, and Thai) and you may cut big bunches.      

*New potatoes are thin skinned and very tender. They generally take less time to cook than older potatoes.

**Here are some links to some great fennel recipes:
