Castle Hill Garden – Harvest Update from Chef Jon

Posted by: clukeris on September 29, 2009 | No Comments Yet. Be the first!

We recently checked in with Castle Hill Executive Farmer, eh hem I mean Executive Chef Jonathan Cambra – to see how the fall harvest was going out at the Castle Hill garden. Here’s what he had to report:

“We have had much success this season even with the challenging weather we had in June and July. We have been harvesting veggies all season and utilizing them for menu items, menu additions, the nightly amuse bouche. The dinning room staff have really enjoyed learning about the garden so they can see for themselves where the veggies come from and how they grow. The fall crop of veggies are coming up which include white turnips, kale, collard greens, Brussels sprouts, assorted lettuces and a variety of herbs. We have also planted a blueberry bush patch. The last item to go into the ground will be garlic, this we be planted in late October for a late 2010 spring and summer harvest.”

Can’t wait!
