Taste of the Gardens at Civic Garden Center

On Saturday, September 17, the Civic Garden Center on Reading Road is having a Fall plant sale, followed by a "Taste of the Gardens" event. Local community gardeners are invited to participate and share some tasty treats made from the bounty they are harvesting. We'd like to have the Enright CSA participate, to show off some of our delicious harvest and also to let people know what we have been doing with our urban agriculture project.

So we are asking Enright CSA members to donate some kind of easy-to-serve food (preferably something that is eaten at room temperature or cold, since we can't really keep things hot) for this event, which will be from 4 pm to 6 pm at the Civic Garden Center. You can drop off what you've made during pickup on September 17; someone will be there to collect the food. Maybe you have a jar of pickles to share, or you could make some delicious baba ganoush from our surfeit of eggplant, or you know a secret recipe for turning squash into a dessert treat . . . If you can't make something, we're also accepting donations of bottles of white wine, so Nancy Sullivan can make some of her delicious basil sangria for the event.

If you'd really like to get involved, we could use a couple of volunteers to help at our table at the Flavors of the Community Gardens party. If you are available during the afternoon of Saturday, September 17, to help us get the word out about the Enright CSA Urban Farm by sharing some of what we've grown, please contact us at farm@pricehill.org.
