Tisanes & Cocktails: A Modern Herbal at Deep Cut Gardens

Join us for an herbal tea tasting, presentation and garden walk. Discover easy to grow common (and not-so-common) garden herbs including rosemary, lemon thyme, stevia, anise hyssop and more. These tasty herbs are not only beautiful but provide a vital habitat for insect and birds. Participants will take home an herb seedling.

Discover ways to cook “green” with Monmouth County Park System's classes for adults that focuses on regionalizing our food system, preparing healthy food and minimizing waste. All classes are conducted by Kitty Dennery, a trained chef and home gardener, in a demonstration format that includes recipes, tastings and suggestions of places to shop. Held from 1-4pm at Deep Cut Gardens, Red Hill Road, Middletown, each class costs $35 per person. Pre-registration is required.
