🌱 Basil’s February Garden Picks

February may still have a chill in the air, but Basil knows the garden is already thinking about spring! This month, he’s picked leeks and kiwi—two very different foods with plenty to discover.

Leeks love cooler weather and bring a mild, slightly sweet flavor to the kitchen. Kiwi grows on vigorous vines and hides its bright green, tangy fruit beneath a fuzzy brown skin.

Check out Basil’s garden guides to learn how they grow, when they’re harvested, and a few handy tidbits along the way.

Then it’s off to the kitchen to see what the gang can make with them! 🌱🥝

🍽️From the Plot to the Pot

Basil has handed over February’s leeks and kiwi, and now it’s the kitchen crew’s turn!

This month’s recipes take our garden picks in four very different directions—from warm and savory comfort food to something fresh, sweet, and unexpected. It’s proof that even February can bring plenty of flavor to the table.

Try one or make all four, download the recipe cards to keep, and don’t forget to decide which one deserves your PAW-proval!

Aprons on — let’s take February from Plot to Pot! 🥬🥝🐾
