Homegrown Tea

Today's market at Brunswick was cold and windy.  When I got home I felt all stuffy and chilly from being outside for half the day in the cold.  So I figured, perfect day to make some tea, and after I did I felt so much better.

Ingredients:

Chamomile flowers dried

Spearmint

Basil

Garlic

Honey

Water (of coarse)

I take a tea ball and fill it with chamomile, spearmint and basil.  I mostly use chamomile and spearmint.  I add the tea ball to the water in the pan, and bring it to a boil.  Once it begins to boil I add the garlic (about one clove, cut into slivers), and remove the pan from heat and cover.  Let it sit for at least 15 minutes.  Fill the mug, add the honey, and enjoy.

I have never been a tea person, but once I started to grow my own herbs and made my own tea out of everything I grew myself, to me it seemed so much better than the store bought stuff.

Market Pictures

Just thought I would do a quick post with some pictures I took today, of our table at Valley City Farmers Market.

 We will still be selling at Valley City Farmers Market till at least the first week of October, and some other vendors should be joining us also.  Hope to see everyone there!  Also we are still up at Brunswick Farmers Market till the Pumpkin Festival, which is on October 10th and 11th.
