NEWS AND NOTES

The summer vegetables are plentiful at this time of year, as well as locally sourced milk and eggs. There are also a lot of great perennial plants and quite a few houseplants and hanging baskets. Check out the herbs, both fresh-cut and dried, as well as the herb plants. Be sure to get your share of local beef and pork cuts!




This message comes from Dogwood Valley Greenhouse:

Thankfully the weather will be a bit cooler this coming week, and along with some much-needed rain, will make very good planting conditions. Our herb and perennial plants are looking very good, and would really help to dress up your garden before your July 4th celebrations. Especially nice right now are rosemary, several varieties of lavender, and all the thymes, mints, and basils. Foliage of artemisia, santolina, and euonymous; and blooms of several asters, balloon flower, coneflowers, late daylilies, and gauras will brighten your garden. We still have several very nice hanging baskets for your porch or patio, as well as ferns for the shady areas. We still have a very few tomato plants for a late garden. How about a very nice basket of potted herbs as a hostess gift for a July 4th gathering?


(L to R) Lotion Bar and Dried Spearmint from Solace Farm, Pink Soldacki Tomatoes from Erdmann Farm, Sweet (Green) Basil from Dogwood Valley Greenhouse, Ham Slice from Weaver Farms.
