Though native plants are gaining popularity with gardeners, native species are often absent from herb gardens and nursery herb departments. In this class, Sarah Sorci of Sweet Flag Herbs will spotlight native plants that enhance our gardens and our cooking, including rose mallow (Hibiscus moscheutos; H. laevis), nodding onion (Allium cernuum), pepperweed (Lepidium virginicum), bee balm/wild bergamot species (Monarda spp.), and more. We’ll briefly discuss their preferred growing conditions and where to purchase plants and seeds. We'll focus on how to use these herbs in the kitchen and sustainable/ regenerative harvest. Samples will be shared.
