Gardening

We are having a blast outside at the garden and it is flourishing. We have herbs, beets, potatoes, peas, beans, peppers, cucumbers and delicious tomatoes growing out back.

Our lettuce has really taken off and folks have en-joyed some delicious salads that our cooking class prepared. What is great about our garden is we use it as a teaching tool for our kitchen pro-gram as well. We learn about proper washing techniques as well as preparation and cutting skills. Everyone enjoyed learning how to use the salad spinner after hand-washing each piece.

The garden is a great way to give people an opportunity to try healthy vegetables that taste great and are good for them. Our gardeners are taking a lot of pride in their garden and are enjoying the fruits of all of their labor!
