Hi folks. Joe here. Well, Bill and I finally finished establishing our gardens for the 2009 season. Our vegetable garden is abound with all kinds of plants. Tomatoes, zucchini, peppers, lettuce, cucumbers, beans and all kinds of herbs are just some of the things that we have incorporated in the garden. Our guests are in for quite a treat during harvest season when we will be including these veggies in our morning meals. Whether it be a strata or a frittata or just a vegetable omelette, our guests will be sure to enjoy our bounty. One of our specialties will be zucchini blossoms in a tempura batter with maple syrup. Yum, makes me hungry just thinking about it.
But, vegetables and herbs aren't the only thing we planted this year. We have established our new Serenity Garden complete with a natural stone bench and an umbrella covered table for those quiet mornings where a guest or two might want to be served breakfast amidst our beautiful array of roses. Of course the roses aren't in bloom yet, but they soon will be and what a variety we planted. We have the lovely Elegant Lady rose. This is a orange tinged pink rose that is aromatic as well as beautiful to look at. We also planted the Memorial Day Rose which honors the men and women who served to protect our great nation. A special specimen, the Pope John Paul II Rose is a pure white rose that definitely lives up to its namesake's purity. There are a variety of others that just have to be seen to be appreciated.
You can see that Bill and I have been quite busy this season and we hope you will come see us soon. Have a wonderful late spring season and don't forget to visit the farmer's market in Warwick to sample some of the Hudson Valley's wonderful produce.
