Join us for the kickoff of our First Sunday Study Group with a flavorful celebration of one of summer’s most beloved herbs—basil!
This month’s session is called Basil Blast, and we’re diving deep into the world of this fragrant favorite. You’ll learn how to grow, harvest, preserve, and cook with different varieties of basil—including some you may have never met before.
Our featured treats for the day:
• Cinnamon Basil Cookies
• Purple Basil Lemonade (yes, it’s as stunning as it sounds!)
Plus, everyone goes home with a basil starter plant to nurture in your own garden or windowsill.
Our guide for this session is Jamie Koehler, Master Gardener from Cape Girardeau, who brings a wealth of plant wisdom and a true love for teaching.
Whether you’re an herb enthusiast or just curious about growing your own, this gathering is a perfect way to dip your toes (or your cookies) into our new First Sunday tradition.
$10 per person (includes refreshments, talk, plant, and printed handout) paid the day of event.
Seating is limited—reserve your spot early! Just call, stop by the store or email
