Got herbs?
Now is a great time to start your herb garden to be ready to harvest in June.  Save money, save gas and save time by growing your own.  Mint, basil, sage, rosemary, and oregano are just a few starts that you can get at CCFM or Hollygrove. 
Going Ultrastrict? 
Each year, as local food availability grows, it is easier and easier to go on a 100% all local diet in New Orleans. This year we have whole wheat flour and tea, but going on a 100% local diet can still be a challenge. We are looking for 3 participants to compete with us and take a two week Ultrastrict Challenge and document their efforts. A $75 food budget will be given to those who are accepted. Email Elisa@eatlocalnola.org if you are ready to belly up. More details here.
Party in the Garden
 Hollygrove Market's fantastic fundraising event is tonight with delicious food and drinks from New Orleans top restaurants, distilleries and breweries. We will be there tabling at the event. Support Hollygrove!  More details here.  Get tickets here.
