Meet Me at the Garden Gate

Meet Me at the Garden Gate: An Invitation to Seasonal Traditions and Southern Hospitality

A Cookbook from the Junior League of Spartanburg

In Spartanburg, South Carolina we have an age-old tradition of sharing food, recipes, and a few garden "secrets" among our friends. We invite you to share with us, from one season to another, the bountiful variety of gifts from our garden. The more than 230 recipes we share with you are as southern as grits. They are time and again called upon to fill the table and stand the test of time. They are our very southern essence - defining us as a family and connecting the generations through the taste buds.

If the title of this wonderful cookbook doesn't touch that at home feeling inside of you, the cover will certainly make you take a second look. The beautiful watercolor illustration invites you in...into a cookbook that is sure to please with a variety of savory recipes to try and seasonal story side bars.

Features

Information on a host of celebrated area gardens and public places such as Gwathmey Garden, Hatcher Garden and Woodland Preserve, Barnet Park, Milliken, and Gibbs Regional Cancer Center.

Delightful information about seasonal traditions and southern hospitality.

Various writings from the Hub City Writers Project.

Delicious recipes donated from local area restaurants such as Gerhard's, Ellis', Sugar-n-Spice, The Pinecrest Inn, and the Piedmont Club.

Each seasonal section features recipes for refreshing beverages, delectable desserts, and everything in between.

A special note: This delightful cookbook was the 2001 regional winner of the Tabasco Community Cookbook Awards. Certainly well deserved!
