2015 – January NHS Meeting Highlights

From the President

Hope you are staying warm for this cold snap we are having—although I think it will be short-lived. What a great evening to steep some hot tea, get out the seed catalogs and start planning this coming year’s herb garden. Dreaming about spring is what you need to do when it is going to be 10 below zero!

We had a great meeting in January, with many delicious soups to sample. I am inspired to start seeds after listening to Serena McCoy give us some pointers about how to successfully do so. My little garden stool is ready to go just as soon as the weather allows me to be outside in the garden.
