Farm to School Home Garden Kits 2024
| Back by popular demand! |
| Seneca County Farm to School Home Garden Starter Kits |
For a fifth year in a row, we will be making home garden kits for the community that will available in April!
This year’s garden kit features veggie and herb seeds perfect for snacking and making pickles. A cherry tomato blend, pickling cucumbers, green beans, and carrots will be great to snack on right out of the garden or paired with a dip made using some of your own fresh dill. If you tire of having a bounty of fresh and delicious healthy snacks at your fingertips, then the dill leaves and flowers can also be used to make your favorite pickled veggies to enjoy later, whether it be traditional pickles, dilly beans, or a garden mix. In addition, dill flowers are great alongside the cosmos and bachelor’s button flowers that will attract pollinators to your garden and make beautiful summer bouquets.
To give you a little courage to start your gardening journey and boost your confidence that you too can have a green thumb, the CCE Seneca staff have provided growing information for each seed variety and helpful gardening tips for “How to Grow Your Garden”. Resources for safely preserving your garden produce and guidance on making simple, yet beautiful bouquets are also included. Each kit comes in a reusable bag made from recycled materials that will be perfect for easily carrying your garden harvest or shopping at your local Farmers Market. CCE Seneca will also offer more gardening tips and updates on growing, harvesting, and eating your garden-fresh produce, as well as hosting cooking classes and food preservation workshops throughout the season.
