“A garden is evidence of faith. It links us with all the misty figures of the past who also planted and were nourished by the fruits of their planting.” - Gladys Taber; Stillmeadow Sampler

MARBLEHEAD GARDEN CLUB MISSION

The Marblehead Garden Club, founded in 1926, is a volunteer organization dedicated to the care and cultivation of the historically inspired gardens surrounding the Jeremiah Lee Mansion, one of America's premier high-style revolutionary era homes. United by a love of gardening, education and community service, the club is also committed to self-sustaining organic gardening.

ASPIRIN KEEPS HOUSE PLANTS HEALTHY


With regular doses-every two months-indoor and outdoor plants grow more, bloom better and have fewer fungus and pest problems. Aspirin prevents plants from producing a substance that hastens aging or wilting.

To make one gallon of aspirin solution:

Dissolve a regular strength, uncoated aspirin tablet in one cup of water...discard one-quarter cup of the solution...then add enough plain water to make a full gallon.

Marion Owen, coauthor of Chicken Soup for the Gardener's Soul

 

CHEESY BAKED TORTELLINI


Ingredients:

  • Olive oil
  • 2 cups marinara sauce
  • 1/3 cup mascarpone cheese
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh Italian parsley leaves
  • 2 teaspoons chopped fresh thyme leaves
  • 1 pound purchased cheese tortellini
  • 2 ounces thinly sliced smoked mozzarella or plain
  • 1/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan

    Directions

    Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly oil an 8 by 8 by 2-inch baking dish.

    Whisk the sauce, mascarpone cheese, parsley and thyme in a large bowl to blend.

  • Cook the tortellini in a large pot of boiling salted water until just tender, about 2 minutes. Drain. Add the tortellini to the sauce and toss to coat. Transfer the tortellini mixture to the prepared baking dish. (adding baby spinach, broccoli, mushrooms or cooked sausage, etc works well too)
  • Top the mixture with the smoked mozzarella and Parmesan. Cover and bake until the sauce bubbles and the cheeses on top melt, about 30 minutes.
