 PROGRAM: A Summer With Herb
Guest speaker Peggy Riccio, Chair of the Potomac Unit of the Herb Society of America, gave an engaging and instructional talk titled One Dozen Herbs to Use and Grow. She covered twelve popular herbs—dill, cilantro, basil, fennel, rosemary, thyme, sage, oregano/marjoram, chives, mint, lemon balm, and parsley—sharing valuable information on the best time to plant each one, when to begin harvesting, techniques for preservation, and creative ways to use them in the kitchen. She also included a few delicious recipes to try at home. These herbs are so easy to grow that they can even thrive in containers throughout the summer.
