This week featuring:     

                   Viola Sorbet

Did you know that violas and pansies are edible flowers?

Sprinkle a handful on a green salad for delightful springtime treat,
or let the children make violet sandwiches --

     1. pick some pretty violas
     2. spread some cream cheese on a piece of bread
     3. arrange and press in some violas or violets

Our grown children still remember and treasure these simple sandwiches.

Our giant pansies are treats for the eyes more than the taste buds, but
our violas are named Sorbet for a reason!  Since we grow our flowers
as if they were vegetables, it is safe for you to taste one of our
violas right at
the farm stand.  Be sure to bite into the center of the flower because
that is
where the nectar is.  You are in for a pleasant surprise!
