Hey listeners! Thanks for coming back to listen again to the Milkweed Musings podcast. Today I have a big announcement! We've planted a community herbal garden! How cool is that!? There are veggies there too. So when you come by to get your tomatoes for dinner, you can grab some basil too! And oregano, and peppermint, and chives, and rosemary, and Thyme! The garden is located in Brantford, Ontario on a friend's front lawn through a company called Equal Ground. They organize hundreds of community gardens across the city. When the garden is linked on the website, I'll be able to post the exact location.

Feeling grateful for the community connections involved in a community garden. Growing and eating healthy, fresh food together! Oh the possibilities.

Goals for a community herbal garden: to educate the community on the medicinal effects of common culinary herbs; to provide recipes for culinary and medicinal inspiration; to connect with others.

Today's episode features some details about Thyme - which you can find in the garden!

Thanks for listening! As always - shout out to @chicorynikki for the invigorating intro and outro music.

Talk to you next Wednesday!
