MANIFESTO

  • Convinced that gardening MATTERS

     

    We Are:

     

    Convinced that gardening MATTERS.

     

    Bored with perfect magazine gardens.

     

    In love with real, rambling, chaotic, dirty, bug-ridden gardens.

     

    Suspicious of the “horticultural industry.”

     

    Delighted by people with a passion for plants.

     

    Appalled by chemical warfare in the garden.

     

    Turned off by any activities that involve “landscaping” with “plant materials.”

     

    Flabbergasted at the idea of a “no maintenance garden.”

     

    Gardening our asses off.

     

    Having a hell of a lot of fun.

This is what passes for sophisticated in NYC. In case you've never eaten a basil seed...don't.

Hmm. Now I have to eat one.

Me too. I love mustard seeds, sesame seeds, dill seeds, poppy seeds, etc., so if basil seeds aren't poisonous, they might be basily and yummy and crunchy. Did they taste bad?

Basil seeds are not poisonous.When added to water they get a gelatinous coating. They are used extensively in this form all over asia. primarily india, pakistan, thailand in drinks like falooda etc. They are also used in Iran i think. You can try them on some light flavor ice cream like vanilla and maybe some rose or strawberry syrup with a few water soaked basil seeds.

Perfect punch for Asia especially during Ramadhan - red rose syrup, with condensed milk, some icre-cream soda amd well soaked basil seeds. Try this milky red syrup and you will love it.
