Pure love with roots and stems, don't miss it. Extensive amounts of land are used for farming and. Eighty-five percent of that land was located between Dodge City and the Colorado line. They've also got herb-related workshops, though I haven't experienced those myself. In 1920 crops on 95,000 acres of Kansas farmland were being irrigated. I even took a taciturn teenager here (with the promise of something else later in the day to make it up to him) and he was nabbed by a sensitive plant that closed when you touched it and a chocolate-scented plant. Even if you are not gaga about gardening something here will catch you and make you take it home and grow it. You want mint, did you say? Could you be more specific? Apple, Pineapple, Chocolate, Pepper, Lemon.Thinking about a fruit tree perhaps? Moro blood oranges! Three colors of figs! Tamarind! Pomegranate! Something hurts? Hundreds, HUNDREDS of medicinal herbs. From Buddha's Hand Citrus trees to Zaatar and just about everything in between. You will swoon with the breadth of their selection. Just strolling the gardens is enough for some folks, but then, ooh! ahh! herbs, spices, and fruit trees unavailable anywhere else. This is a multi-generational labor of love, gardening, and culinary wisdom, by serious candidates for The Nicest People on the Planet.
In central NJ, just a short drive from Bethlehem PA, there's a little slice of paradise for gardeners, cooks and everyone in between.

The first garden I approached was the "Healing Garden." Full of Soft Lambs Ears and medicinal plants. Upon arrival, I feel like a kid in a candy shop! Which way do I go? Which plant do I want? Although I had carefully planned a list of plants I wanted from their extensive online catalog, I didn't follow it. Round Valley Reservoir is the largest in New Jersey and can be filled with 55 billion gallons of water at maximum capacity. The farm from Union County NJ is all of a 45 minute drive off of 78 West. The valley was flooded and ruins of the town (but not entire buildings) still remain under the waters surface. Realizing the harmful effects of some of the insecticides used by the big box stores, I wanted no parts! When I consider my neighbors, the farmers of Concord, who are at least as well off as the other classes, I find that for the most part they have been. Six of them have never been found.I traveled to Port Murray to visit Well Sweep Herb Farm because I read that they were an organic farm. The reservoir has been called the Bermuda Triangle of New Jersey, and over 26 people have drowned there since 1971. The park also has a wilderness area for camping, swimming and SCUBA diving facilities, a boat ramp and nature hiking and biking trails. Some of the other species of fish in the lake include bass, pickerel, catfish, american eel, yellow perch, brown trout, and rainbow trout. This is one of only two lakes in New Jersey with lake trout, the other being Merrill Creek Reservoir in Warren County. The New Jersey Division of Wildlife (a department of the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection) claims the reservoir is the southernmost body of water that contains naturally reproducing lake trout. Its water is distributed during times of drought via the nearby south branch of the Raritan River. The reservoir contains 55 billion US gallons (210,000,000 m 3 ) of water for use in central New Jersey, making it the largest in the state.
Reaching depths of 180 feet (55 m), this 2,350 acres (9.5 km 2 ) reservoir is best known for its pristine clear blue waters.
