Growing, Harvesting & Using Culinary Herbs
The use of herbs in cooking dates back thousands of years. Like
our early colonists, who understood the benefits of using culinary
herbs, the home gardener can have herbs in a convenient kitchen
garden. We will look at growing herbs both outside and inside,
then discuss the best times to harvest herbs and easy methods
to store and preserve them. And of course, we will discuss quick
and effective ways to use herbs in your favorite-and soon to
be favorite-foods! Instructor, Mary Tessman, is a University of
Minnesota Extension Service Master Gardener. Class fee: $19.
