Grow your own: Save money and eat more healthy food!

If you are new to gardening, or a little rusty, this is an opportunity to learn about choosing seeds, preparing for planting, starting seeds inside and transitioning them to the ground outdoors. See and learn about tools and techniques, browse resources, ask questions and begin planning for the growing year ahead.

Sandy Hamm and Billie Stark, our workshop instructors, have over 70 years of combined experience in growing food to feed their families.

A graduate of the Culinary Institute of America, Aubrey Saxton is a self-described “cookie monster.” Using high quality local and USA grown ingredients to produce tasty treats, her goal is for each product you taste to be the best you ever had! Her goodies come in traditional flavors to satisfy comfort food cravings, as well as some fun and innovative flavors like Blackberry Lavender and Mint Jam. All her products are handmade and uniquely delicious, from pies and cookies, to pickles and jam.

Corned Beef & Cabbage Recipe Makes 12 servings

Ingredients:• 1-3/4 pounds onions, divided use• 2-1/2 pounds carrots, divided use• 6 pounds corned beef brisket

or round, spiced or unspiced• 1 cup cider vinegar• 6 ounces Irish stout beer• 1 tablespoon mustard seed• 1 tablespoon coriander seed• 1/2 tablespoon black peppercorns• 1/2 tablespoon dill seed• 1/2 tablespoon whole allspice• 2 bay leaves• 3 pounds cabbage, rinsed• 2-1/2 pounds small red potatoes, scrubbed• 1/2 cup coarse grain mustard, optional• 1/2 cup Dijon mustard, optional

Preparation:Divide onions and carrots and chop enough to fill 1 cup of each, reserving the rest. Place the corned beef in the stockpot. Add the chopped onions, carrots, malt vinegar, stout beer, mustard seeds, coriander seeds, black peppercorns, dill seeds, whole allspice, and bay leaves. Add enough water to cover the corned beef and stir to combine. Bring to a boil, cover, and simmer 3 hours until meat is fork-tender.

While the beef is cooking, cut the reserved onions into eight wedges and the carrots into 2-inch chunks. (Larger carrots should be halved first.) Slice each head of cabbage into 8 wedges.

Add onions, carrots and red potatoes to the cooked corned beef, with the cabbage on top. Cover and return to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer about 20 minutes, until potatoes and cabbage are fork-tender.

To serve, cut corned beef against the grain into thin slices and accompany with the cooked vegetables. Dijon mustard and/or coarse-grained mustard complement the corned beef as optional condiments.
