Red Buttercrunch Lettuce Micco,FL
Featuring Pure Produce Red Buttercrunch Lettuce! Rich green leaves, tinged with red, form a beautiful rosette in the garden. A good source of vitamin A and phytonutrients, Red Buttercrunch thick sweet leaves add a good dose of fiber, vitamin A, vitamin K, and folate to the diet. The high water content (about 95%) and low-calorie count make this and all lettuces a healthy diet choice, with the darker and greener lettuces carrying more nutrients than the lighter colored ones.
Farm Tour
What: Seminole Springs Antique Rose and Herb Farm
When: Sunday, November 11, 2012 @ 10 a.m. until 12 noon
Where: Eustis, FL
(an hour’s drive from downtown Orlando)
We will meet once again in Eustis, FL to visit with a third grower, Seminole Springs Antique Rose and Herb Farm, who partners with Homegrown. While we are there, Farmer Traci Anderson will take us on a tour of this family run nursery, and provide us with a mini workshop on growing and using herbs.
Handouts will be included, so, be certain to make a reservation <eeant@mac.com> since space is limited. For those that like active participation mixed with comedy, Traci will give us an opportunity to keep up with the potting machine conveyor belt.
After the tour, participants are invited to picnic on the grounds, visit the gift shed, and share a glass of herb tea. As this is Veteran’s Day, please, feel free to invite a Veteran in your life to attend this farm tour as your guest.
To make a reservation for you and/or any accompanying guests, please contact: Jackie McFadden, eeant@mac.com, 404-571-9602, or sign-up at the Homegrown Store.
Shop at the On-line Farmer’s Market.
