Wednesday, August 14: Herbal Oils and Vinegar

Harvest some fresh herbs at the garden and make a batch of herbal oil or herbal vinegar. We’ll be using a mortar and pestle to crush herbs. Bring a clean jar if you have one, or we will have jars that you can use.

Wednesday, August 28: Salsarific!

We will make fresh salsa with tomatoes, peppers, onions, and cilantro harvested from the garden, then try it out on tortilla chips. In case of rain, the workshops will be canceled.

For more information, please call Susan Schmidt at 781-396-8029 or email sschmidt.home@gmail.com.

The Columbus School Garden Club is a volunteer organization that organizes gardening activities and educational events for the Columbus School and the Medford community.
