Homestead Magazine Summer 2010

Home Remedy

By Steve Werblow

California retreat delights all the senses

Summer 2010 Homestead Magazine Dawn breaks over California's Sierra Mountains and colors emerge from the grays and blues of night. A palette of greens, purples, golds, and oranges materializes, and soon the acre of herbs at Squaw Valley Herb Gardens comes into focus. So does the meadow that tumbles down the hillside from the garden to lay a blanket of grass and wildflowers at the feet of Pu Su Tao, or Bald Mountain.

The fresh mountain air is still, but it's full of drama, too: the buzz of bees, a whiff of sage, the gentle touch of lavender, a hint of spice.

To learn more about Home Remedy, read the Summer 2010 issue of Homestead Magazine.
