The Last of Winter

The long winter has enveloped the landscape in a serene blanket of snow, transforming everything into a glistening wonderland. As the chill deepens, our garlic, planted at the season’s onset, has been quietly growing beneath the frosty surface. These hardy bulbs thrive in the cold, soaking up moisture from the melting snow, and by the end of winter, they will be ready to harvest. Garlic, with its robust flavor and health benefits, is the perfect companion for winter meals, adding warmth and richness to our dishes during this chilly season.

Union County Commissioner Sergio Granados attended the Richmond Towers Harvest Party in Plainfield, where they served all the fresh produce that was grown in their local garden for a special luncheon.

Among the many dishes, there were fruit salads, corn soup, and callaloo dishes.

Thank you to all those who assisted in keeping this garden active and all who came to support and enjoy the good food. We had an amazing time!
