This is a brilliant idea for all of our “garden enthusiast” guests! If you have been here within the last couple of years you would know that we try to grow as much of the fresh produce we use as possible. It’s one of the ways we try to give you the best experience imaginable during your stay. And, no worries, everything is grown organically. Who can resist a refreshing salad of tender young lettuces or warm blueberry muffins made with fresh-picked blueberries? I am partial to warm, ripe Mr. Stripey heirloom tomatoes from the vine. Whatever your favorites are, we are giving you a chance to let you help us plan a bed for our expanding garden this year.
We would like to hear from as many of our guests as we can. Let us know what your favorites are and those with the most requests will land a spot in the “Guests Garden”. Not only will you help determine what is in the garden, if you’re up to it – we’ll let you get in and get your hands dirty too! A little watering here, a little weeding there. You can do as much or as little as you want. If there is something that needs picked, bring it on up and we’ll cook it for your dinner that evening. It doesn’t get any fresher than that!
So Facebook us your request now. Please be specific, not just “tomatoes”, but San Marzano Plum tomatoes. Not just “lettuce”, but Butterhead Lettuce. You get the idea. Keep in mind that space in the guest garden will be at a premium so watermelons and corn will be discouraged. I would even like to hear ideas for naming the garden. So, let’s have fun with this, folks! We are looking forward to hearing from you all.
