Last Chance Today: Italy is Coming to your Garden

Grow your own Italian garden today and savor the flavors of Italy all year long. [Food Gardening Network Preview]( February 5, 2024  [The Tasty Italian Food Garden Planning Kit]( Grow your own Italian garden today and savor the flavors of Italy all year long. [Planning Kit] Hello gardening friends! Picture this: succulent tomatoes, aromatic basil, and pungent garlic taking center stage on your table. Crisp salads adorned with bitter radicchio, drizzled with balsamic reduction, and intermingled with arugula. It's a culinary symphony I hold dear. There’s a reason Italian food is beloved the world over. The best thing, though, is that you can bring these fresh flavors straight from your garden to your kitchen! Just think! It’s a warm summer afternoon, and you step into your sun-filled garden to collect fragrant herbs, juicy tomatoes, and perfectly ripe peppers. Moments later you’re at your kitchen counter chopping basil while garlic and rosemary simmer on the stove. That sounds like an idyllic day to me! And I’d love to have you join me. That’s what the new printable Food Gardening Network Italian Food Garden Planning Kit is all about. [Food Gardening Network Charter Gold Membership Special Offer—Just $10 for an Entire Year!

With this collection, you can embark on a culinary journey that will not only tantalize your taste buds but also connect you with the rich botanical heritage of Italy. To provide you with a clear roadmap for planting success, we've even prepared a planting chart for a 9x9' garden bed, showcasing the ideal growing conditions for each plant. Of course, we can’t just leave you with that! How about some delightful recipes so you can savor the flavor? [Planning Kit] These recipes are simple, but the flavors! Simply amazing!! That’s the benefit of using your own, garden-grown tomatoes, eggplant, basil, and oregano. Immerse yourself in the flavors of legendary Italian cooking all from your kitchen. You’ll find 15 hand-curated recipes in the printable Food Gardening Network Italian Food Garden Planning Kit. One recipe here that I absolutely adore is the Roasted Tomato Kale Soup. Almost everything in this dish comes from my garden, so it always feels like a special meal. To tell you the truth, though, I make this in the winter a lot, too, even when my garden is dormant. It’s a great recipe for a cold or rainy day when you want something warm and cozy. I use the Authentic Italian Pizza Sauce recipe often, too. It’s great on a garden vegetable pizza, but it also makes a great gift. I usually bottle up a few batches to give to friends as a late-summer treat. I usually include a recipe with the sauce gifts, as well. Just a few months ago, I started using these Italian Garden Notecards, and I have to say, they really make the gift stand out. You’ll find your own set of these in the Food Gardening Network Italian Food Garden Planning Kit. [Planning Kit] This printable Food Gardening Network Italian Food Garden Planning Kit includes more than 35 pages packed with the perfect layout for your Italian food garden, a guide to traditional Italian herb and vegetable varietals, gorgeous notecard ideal for keeping in touch with friends or jotting down your own recipes, and 15 mouth-watering recipes to keep your kitchen, and your home, steeped in an intoxicating blend of aromas.

When I first started gardening, I made a lot of mistakes, and it didn’t come to me naturally. I had to go through dozens of books, piles of magazines, and about a million websites to figure out how to grow what I wanted. There was some luck, too. I have some friends who are experienced food gardeners, and I wasn’t shy about talking to the farmers I bought produce from at the markets and farm stands. That’s certainly one way to learn. I also realize that takes a lot of time and patience (and no small amount of Type A personality traits!). And honestly, there are times it would have been nice to have one source to discover a new vegetable (or rediscover some old favorites), and get all the information I needed to grow these vegetables in my garden. Well, now there is, thanks to the Food Gardening Network—a one-stop guide for all your gardening and cooking needs. From starting seeds to irrigation to pest control to indoor herb gardens, this is the information I wish I had when I was learning to garden. This is where the Food Gardening Network truly shines.
