Learn to Make Herby Butter
Join us Thursday, August 18 from 1 to 2pm to learn how to make simple compound butter using herbs from our container gardens.
Participants will learn how to harvest herbs, like rosemary and chives, from our onsite containers to add to a few simple recipes at the Horodynsky Community Kitchen. The tasty variety of compound butter can be used as a spread or in cooking and will be available at the Troy Scott Community Fridges.
The Innisfil Seed Library is excited to partner with the Town of Innisfil and the Rizzardo Health & Wellness Centre for a free weekly vegetable and herb gardening program throughout the summer.
This hands-on program will evolve each week as the plants grow and mature. You may register for one session or the whole series!
You can expect to learn:
What plants that are best suited for container gardening
How to maintain a healthy container garden
Companion planting and incorporating flowers into your vegetable/herb garden to attract pollinators
How to harvest veggies and herbs for continuous harvest throughout the season
Succession planting
How to save seeds later in the season
Not only is this an opportunity to learn about growing food but it's also a great way to help increase food security in our community as fresh produce will be donated to the Troy Scott Community Fridges.
