Dear Home Cook,
Every year we plant our vegetable garden. We dig and weed and water and watch the literal fruits of our labor grow into delicious produce. Growing a garden certainly has its own rewards, but let’s not kid ourselves - the real reward is grabbing some fresh herbs, a ripe tomato, juicy blueberries, or a summer squash from the yard and turning it into a meal.
In the 228 years of publishing The Old Farmer’s Almanac, we’ve gathered quite the collection of recipes. Some have been questionable (to be fair, 228 years is more than 249,000 meals, and the pie wasn’t that bad). Most have been delightful; you can’t go too wrong with Apple Fritters! |
|
So what does one do with that many recipes? What else? We collected over 160 of our favorites, put them together in the brand new Cooking Fresh digital cookbook, and included it in our Gardening Club.
What, you may ask, is in this collection? Breakfast, brunch, fresh appetizers, savory soups, healthy salads, fun and easy side dishes, hearty stews, casseroles, pizza and pasta, savory and sweet breads, cakes, cookies, and refreshing drinks. You’ll find classics like Blueberry Pancakes, Vegetable Lasagna, and Shepherd’s Pie. You’ll also find some new ideas for meals like Apple-Maple Pork Chops with Apple Rice Pilaf, Fettuccine with Mushrooms and Clove Pinks, Potato Bacon Cheddar Kugelis, Parsnip Griddle Cakes, and Peach Basil Iced Tea (it’s seriously the best thing on a hot summer day). | In all, Cooking Fresh brings you more than 130 pages of delicious recipes, cooking tips, full-color pictures, common substitutions (never worry about running out of baking powder again!), weights and measurements, a guide to the flavor profiles and uses of more than three dozen herbs and spices, and all sorts of storage tips and cooking secrets.
And here’s the great part - that’s only one small part of what you get when you join The Old Farmer’s Almanac Gardening Club. Your membership also comes with the 2021 edition of The Old Farmer’s Almanac, a gorgeous Gardening Wall Calendar that is packed with rich illustrations and gardening tips, the monthly EXTRA! digital magazine, the Gardening Club exclusive softcover book, Gardening for Everyone, and immediate access to our full library of more than 40 issues of the digital monthly magazine, EXTRA! | Shhh! We’re Sneaking In A Recipe
Okay, our editors told us not to give away too much, but there’s one recipe in Cooking Fresh that might just be the best savory breakfast around. If you haven’t had Mexican Quiche before, you need to put this on your list today!
It starts with sprinkling a pie crust with grated cheddar cheese, so you know we’re off to a yummy start. Then sauté onion, green bell pepper, garlic, a diced tomato, sliced black olives, and ½ cup of corn. Add in chili powder, cumin, oregano, and salt and pepper, and spread that in the pie crust over the cheese. Beat together six eggs and a pint of whipping cream, spread that over the vegetables and bake at 350 degrees for an hour and 10 minutes. Serve it with sour cream and salsa. Yum! |  | | Photo Credit: Becky Luigart-Stayner | Why Should You Join A Gardening Club?
One of the big trends in the coming year is around gardening. More people are using their front lawns to grow food, rooftop gardens are becoming more common, and truthfully, gardening is a great way to get outside and get some fresh air. But gardening takes some know-how and a few minor changes can mean the difference between bust and abundance.
And not to brag (much), but we do have 228 years of gardening experience that we’d love to share with you. Oh, there’s also the Sweet Potato and Pineapple Casserole recipe that we’re pretty sure you won’t find anywhere else. And while you can probably find a Strawberry Lemonade recipe somewhere, will that recipe tell you how to double the amount of juice you can squeeze from a lemon? You’ll only get that when you join the club.
We have a lot more recipes and gardening tips (over two centuries worth!) waiting for you, along with a bundle of BONUSES, when you join The Old Farmer’s Almanac Gardening Club. |

This compact calendar is the perfect size to fit on the wall in your kitchen, den, or potting shed. Each month features rich, full-color illustrations along with tips, history, or background information on the artwork.
Here are just a few of the types of tips you can find in our 2021 Gardening Calendar: - Reinvigorate your houseplants by removing the top 1/4 inch of soil and top-dressing with fresh potting soil.
- Use an old salt shaker for sowing tiny seeds. Mix the seeds with sand for better spreading.
- Plants with a strong citrus fragrance will help to keep pesky bugs at bay. Try planting lemon-scented geraniums, lemon thyme, or lemon balm.
- Lettuce shaded naturally or by shade cloth will encourage the growth of a tender, sweet crop all summer.
- To attract dragonflies, create a water feature. Choose a spot in partial to full sun and plant a few native plants along the edges for wind protection.
- Remove the lower leaves of brussels sprouts to expose the buds along the stem. Harvest from the bottom up.
- Fill bird feeders to attract chickadees, nuthatches, and juncos—they will not only brighten the landscape but also clean up insect larvae and eggs on trees and shrubs.
You’ll love the advice, folklore, and gardening secrets in our 2021 Gardening Wall Calendar!
