What fun!! I moved a perennial garden (I do this about every 4 to five years) and so I have a happy warm feeling. Fall can now happen.

P.S. You should through these recipes into the classroom with categories so that they are easily findable... though your post title is really good so that it is searchable.

ok.. I am excited about that.

Spinach. I live in a short season area so I love cool loving vegetables and flowers. But I say spinach because after a long winter I'm starving for some fresh greens and I use this in smoothies.

@Julie Robinson Broussard I'm like you, I can't choose. Basically it's about what is in season. Like when tomatoes are ripe, cilantro becomes one of my favorites.

Hmmm.... for herbs.... Nepeta "Walker's Low". It is a catmint and I haven't done anything with it medicinally. I use it for cut flowers and it is far superior, in my humble opinion, for that purpose. This one does not seed and go all over, it is well behaved.

Wow, this is wild!! I didn't know this.
