How to Grow and Enjoy Herbs  

No fat, low fat, no salt, watch the sugar; we’re constantly bombarded about how to eat healthier. One of the best ways to introduce healthy, delicious flavor into meals is to use herbs in our cooking.  Many are easy to grow and preserve. They also make beautiful landscape plants and many of their flowers are edible.  Join UC Master Gardeners of El Dorado County Jan Keahey and Ada Brehmer to explore the herbs that grow well in our area, how to propagate and grow, when to harvest.  After the discussion, there will be a hands-on propagation demonstration and you will be able to propagate some of these great herbs to take home with you.
