http://ellenogden.blogspot.com/2011/09/nature-and-nurture.html
Kitchen Garden Designs and Recipes. Food. Garden Designs. Plants. Monday, September 5, 2011. I’ve been reading Coming to Land. Reading this, I see my role as a gardener, one who is deeply connected to the landscape, recognize ways to step out of the comfort of my own garden to help rebuild. I’ve donated my books with garden design consultations to several charity auctions. In the meantime, I think preparing a good meal for my neighbors is in order. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Kitchen Garden Designs and Recipes. Food. Garden Designs. Plants. Monday, August 15, 2011. Fall Flowers for the birds. Nature knows that the turn of summer has taken place and from where I sit with the French doors open wide, the light has shifted and heat of summer has slowly slipped away. Birds swoop in flocks rather than pairs, descending on seedpods left behind by the hollyhocks and sunflowers, lightly bending the tall stems. At night the frogs give way to the subtle harp of the cricket. Http:/ www&#...

Kitchen Garden Designs: Ornamental Edible: Mache
http://ellenogden.blogspot.com/2011/03/ornamental-edible-mache.html
Kitchen Garden Designs and Recipes. Food. Garden Designs. Plants. Thursday, March 17, 2011. One of my favorite salad greens is mache. This once wild green has unique rounded cup-shaped leaves, that form sweet rosettes that call for little more than a simple dressing of walnut oil and sherry vinegar or a twist of lemon to balance their mild, nutty flavor. Cold tolerant and compact, this delicate green is best served on it's own or in the classic Swiss recipe with chopped beets and croutons. Serves 4 to 6.
