Shelton Herb Farm, Leland, NC

http://www.sheltonherbfarmnc.com/




Connected with Margaret Shelton at her wonderful farm in Leland at 340 Goodman Road NE. She brings her fresh organic produce to the local Farmer's Market at Riverside in Wilmington on Saturdays, Poplar Grove in Hampstead on Wednesdays and supplies many of the restaurants in our area.  
Pure joy for me to be amidst all the green of her beautiful creation. Bought some culinary herbs for my fresh kitchen supplies this summer, Basil Ocimum basilicum, Parsley Petroselinum crispum, Nasturtium Tropaeolum sp., Cilantro Coriandrum sp. and for a new fun planting for me Pineapple Sage Salvia elegans. Margaret gave me a few tips on growing them in this totally different bioregion than what I'm accustomed. Thanks Margaret!
