Why buy when you can grow?<\/p>\n

For the home cook\/gardener, very few things are more rewarding than standing in the middle of your garden and planning your next meal. Likewise, nothing is more discouraging than standing in the produce section at the grocery store and not being able to find that specialty herb or vegetable you seek, or discovering the costly price and poor quality. \u201cShopping\u201d in your own home garden is not only cost effective but the product is always fresher, more flavorful, a better quality and always readily available. Growing culinary herbs\/spices, aromatics and specialty vegetables in the North Olympic Peninsula is not only easy but it\u2019s one of the simplest, most economic ways to be self-sufficient and grow \u201cgarden to table produce\u201d throughout the year, while taking your culinary skills to the next level.<\/p>\n
