Seminar on Edible Flowers: June 27

edible-flower-nasturtium-wide

Have you ever wondered if you can eat your flowers? In some cases, you can! Many of these edible beauties are easy to grow over the course of a season.

Join Jenine Stilson to learn which flowers or parts of flowers are safe to eat — and some that you should avoid. She will cover ornamentals, herbs, flowers of fruits and vegetables, and even weeds, and give you creative ideas on how to use them.

Jenine became a UC Marin Master Garden in 2014 and is a leader for the Edible Guild. She grew up on her parents’ almond orchard in Yolo County, and has been a life-long gardener of edibles ever since. She is a contributing writer for “Backyard to Belly” and has presented at the Indian Valley Organic Farm & Garden as well as various school gardens.

Thursday, June 27 at 7:00 p.m. in the Council Chambers, Sausalito City Hall

This program is sponsored by the Sausalito Library and Sausalito Beautiful. If you aren’t able to attend the lecture, you may want to explore the Marin Master Gardener website for more information on edible flowers.
