For Immediate Release
TAKE A WALK ON THE GREEN SIDE OF LANCASTER COUNTY
A Culinary Diversion: The
many faces of Herbs
Lancaster: As green
spreads across the rolling farmland of Lancaster County, spring brings fresh promises of
new beginnings. On Saturday, May 10, two area
bed and breakfasts will guide tourists and locals on a path sure to please all five
senses.
With the help of local experts and nurseries, they will explore all facets of herbs
– starting with aesthetically pleasing additions to gardens, whether in containers,
traditional herb gardens or intermingled with favorite perennial partners.
They’ll learn the medicinal properties, new ways to use both the fragrance and
taste of herbs and finish the day with a feast of a five-course herb-inspired dinner at
Lily's on Main Restaurant on Saturday night.
Not to be overlooked is the obvious “green” benefit of growing your own herbs
and having them at hand whenever the inspiration arrives to make your own salad dressing,
marinade, seasoning, or add an element of crisp flavor to any dish. The fresh quality will
certainly be the favored alternative to driving to the local store and buying
plastic-encased herbs that have sat in warehouses, trucked across the country, or shipped
from outside the country.
The package is offered at $250 per couple and includes all tours, tastings, lunch,
dinner and transportation. The event is open to the public. Guests can arrange to stay at
any of the bed and breakfasts and receive a special herb-inspired gift basket.
