16 jr. Horticulturalists dug right into the longest dandelion root competition at the BBFG today. Afterwards they tasted dandelion salad with fresh garlic chives, parsley, Johnny jump ups and English daisies all fresh form the garden and tossed with Asian sesame dressing. Dessert was a very special creation my Mary Rose Walden...chocolate cupcakes with butter cream icing and floral decorations (gorgeous!!) to celebrate leader Tryntjes birthday. Their work wasnt just about digging dandelions. The greens have been removed from the stems and have been returned to the earth to release the minerals and vitamin ps they have collected in their from deep within the earth to the topsoil to feed the new plants.when they arrive. the roots will be used to create a very special treat for our garden guests this summer...stay tuned. These young people breathed life into the garden for the season, not just today. THANKYOU!!
