Join Sarah Sorci of Sweet Flag Herbs to learn about easy-to-grow native plants that add flair to our meals.

Native plants are gaining popularity with gardeners for their beauty, support of wildlife, and adaptation to the local environment. However, native species are often absent from herb gardens and nursery herb departments. In this class, Sarah will spotlight species that enhance our gardens and our cooking: swamp rose mallow, bee balm and wild bergamot, nodding onion, pepperweed, anise hyssop, and more. We’ll discuss their preferred growing conditions, where to purchase plants and seeds, and fun, easy ways to use these plants in the kitchen. Plus, enjoy samples of a few of Sarah’s favorite recipes.
