Sue Kreidler Frey shared these images that she captured on May 12 during the spring Photo Shoot and Sketch Walk. “My sister and I attended the PhotoShoot at The Quarry Farm today. We had a great time, and thoroughly enjoyed the afternoon. The Farm is a beautiful area – I loved all the farm animals too. I can’t wait to come back to take more pictures, and help pull the dreaded garlic mustard.”
Thank you, Sue. And speaking of garlic mustard, here’s a recipe to help wipe out this invasive. Eat plenty of this delicious, nutritious pesto and make a dent in the population.
Rita’s Garlic Mustard Pesto
Ingredients:
• 3/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
• 2 garlic cloves
• 2 Tbl pine nuts (we use walnut pieces)
• 1/3 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese, about 1 ounce
• 4 cups of garlic mustard leaves
Instructions: Place all of the ingredients except for the garlic mustard in a blender or food processor. Blend until smooth, then add the garlic mustard a handful at a time, blending until all of the greens are incorporated and the pesto is smooth.
