• Rosalind Creasy - Edible Landscaping

    Gardening can be easy, healthy, inexpensive, and best of all, in can be done just about anywhere. As far back as 1970, Rosalind Creasy was a pioneer in the field of Edible Landscaping.Her work has since revolutionized the way that many of us think about gardening. Cooking from the garden, eating organic, and eating fresh are all possible and not as hard as you might think.

    In this website, you can see some of Rosalind's best tips on making the most of your home garden, along with various recipes and advice.

    Rosalind's new book, Edible Landscaping, was published in November of 2010 and is now in its third printing.

New speaking dates added for 2009

Edible landscaping lectures have been added to my schedule. These are now reflected in the 2009 schedule page on this website. The new dates include May 7-9 at the Burpee’s Open House in Doylestown, PA.

A very exciting addition will be at the New York Botanical Garden’s Edible Garden exhibition, where I have designed their Seed Saver’s vegetable garden and the new Victorian Cutting Garden. I will be speaking there on Saturday, June 27.

Finally, August 7th, 2009 has been scheduled for the Master Gardener Symposium at Oregon State University, in Corvallis. I will be giving a presentation on edible landscaping to the group and signing books.

Stay tuned for more. This is promising to be an exciting year for edible gardening!

Christmas 2008 with the Hawthorne’s and Mr. X

With the new blog, I have the opportunity to keep up with everybody around the country. I look forward to adding some personal anecdotes, recipes, photos and more. So please do check back often.

I am now at the Hawthorne ranch in San Luis Obispo, California. It’s a part of our yearly tradition, where we meet up either in Los Altos or on the Central Coast for several days of festivities- usually including copious amounts of food, and a careful mix of traditional family recipes and adventuresome forays into novel culinary ground.

The turkey is in the oven, pies have been made, and Mr. X the rooster was just taken out for a walk. Our beloved little bird hasn’t been feeling well lately, so he was supervised closely during his stroll with someone making sure he didn’t fall over.

Here are Noah and Sierra doing some PT work on the chicken as the rain storm cleared up a little bit.

He was fed some worms dug up from the garden:

Settled into the bushes to rest:

And then joined us by the Christmas tree. Here he is with Sierra.

While having a rooster as a pet is admittedly a bit novel, he is such a blast to have around.

Mr. X seems to be doing a little better. Relaxation on the ranch has been good for him. Merry Christmas to everybody, and again, feel free to check back with the blog and watch it develop these next few days.

Carole Saville - Such sweet and caring friends you have to assist you in caring for your beloved and elderly “Mr. X” - a Very Special Pet, indeed. Dog, Cat, Goat, Sheep, Pig, Bird, Horse, etc., - Oh, how we love them all, just as we love our gardens and their bounty.

Bravo for this new site!
