Flowers offer us food and medicine in addition to beauty. Let’s explore some of our favorite summer flowers and the many ways we can enjoy them in the kitchen and apothecary.

Summer Joy

Some of our favorite summer flowers include Chamomile, Rose and Yarrow. We share some recipes and advice on how to make the most of these summer delights.

We’ll also talk about some creative ways to use the bounty of herbs and veggies that are available right now. 

Check out the Mountain Rose Herbs blog that’s packed with useful content and recipes.
