While we eat salad after salad filled with homegrown greens, radishes and herbs (many of which you can see photos of in our June Garden Gallery), and wait for our first tomatoes to begin to ripen, our herbs and flowers are in full bloom, attracting pollinators and beneficial insects to the Raíces gardens. Check out what’s growing and blooming in the Raíces EcoCulture Gardens this week.
