    Favourite ways to cook kale

    Young kale leaves get sauteed in my eggs in the morning or put in salads. Kale chips are good. I dehydrate a lot of it and add it to all soups, meatloaves,pasta dishes and many more dishes. It is so good for you. The large buggy leaves go to the chickens. :drool

    Garden help

    Get it turned over and then ...weed..weed..weed! Just keep the green out(weeds) and eventually they will get fewer and fewer. If you can devote a small area, put some green cover crop in and till it under before it goes to seed. They grow fast and choke out the weeds. Have fun:)
