Our organic garden and greenhouse operate throughout the year, providing an amazing array of vegetables and herbs for meals. Chard, zucchini, tomatillos, asparagus, eggplant, basil, sweet peas, oregano, thyme, all kinds of lettuce and so much more keep the staff busy throughout the year. That which can't be served fresh is made into salsas, pesto, ravioli fillings and the like for later enjoyment!

Many of the flowers you find throughout the Lodge are also grown in the garden. Near the yoga studio is a small orchard which provides plenty of apples, apricots, plums and Asian Pears, all of which find their way into our morning fruit salad and our annual jam-making bonanzas.
