Join me this summer center stage at the Conservatory Kitchen for The Edible Garden on July 17th and August 14th at The New York Botanical Garden. I will be helping the Garden celebrate locally grown, seasonal food in a delightful cooking demonstration. On July 17th, I'll be presenting recipes featuring summer squash, and on August 14th, we'll explore different ways to use peaches.
Set against the backdrop of the landmark Enid A. Haupt Conservatory, the Conservatory Kitchen features celebrity chefs sharing their expertise and inspiring visitors to get cooking! While at the Garden, visitors can enjoy plenty of samples at the Tasting Terrace, booksignings, home gardening demonstrations, guided tours, family activities in the Ruth Rea Howell Family Garden and the Everett Children’s Adventure Garden, and Café Scientifique, featuring talks with some of the Garden’s scientists.
Demonstrations are free with your admission to the Garden. Last year, we made a day of it, taking an amazing tram tour around the Garden (our driver made it informative and fun, and the breeze made it divine after a day at the stove), and stopping at the Family Garden so that the Muffin could run around and have a bit of fun. We capped the day with a trip to Arthur Avenue, the Bronx's "Little Italy", for shopping in the Italian markets, followed by a huge and delicious dinner. I can't wait to return this summer!
