Here's What's Happening at the Shop...
Italian Country Cooking
May 28, August 14, 6:30-10:00 pm, $55 ($20 food fee included).
Lucia’s Sicilian roots have given her an appreciation for olive oil, garlic and herbs,
and the wonderful flavors that they impart in simple dishes of fresh vegetables and pasta in the Italian country style. In this class learn to make a Mediterranean Salad with Lucia’s Olive Oil and Herb Dressing, Stuffed Mushroom Caps, Pasta Primavera with Roasted Red Peppers, and other delicacies. Come hungry.
Eat, Pray, Love
June 14, 1:00-3:30 pm, $35 ($5 food fee included).
The New York Times bestseller Eat, Pray, Love, by Elizabeth Gilbert, is a brilliant book, rich in spiritual insight.
It is the story of one woman's search for her life as she travels across Italy, where she eats; to India,
where she prays; and to Indonesia, where she learns to love again. Join Lucia as we follow her enriching
journey through conversation and reflection, over a plate of delicious pasta.

Let's not forget!
This is an idea to stand by...
"Independent bookstores are as
necessary to our cultures as good food and clean water are for our bodies.
In an age of fast and cheap junk food, we need to seek out the food that
nourishes us. In an age of corporate chains and anonymous internet
mega-stores, it is important to support community based businesses; we can vote
for the world we want every time we shop. By buying books at our local
bookstores, like Lucia's Garden, we are standing for integrity, vision and
cultural diversity.
-Ruth Gendler, author of The
Book of Qualities (now in its 36th printing)
Other Exciting Offerings
The Teacup Bouquet
Custom Bouquets in a Teacup!
Individually made at your request, for special friends on their special occasions, we offer you
the teacup bouquet. Whether for a bedside cheering, a non-too-late thank
you, a birthday wish or an anniversary remembrance, an at-home or office desktop
acknowledgement, a note of sympathy, or a simple floral surprise, Lucia will
create a Teacup Bouquet for you with seasonal flowers and freshly cut
herbs from our gardens. These one-of-a-kind creations include a teacup
filled with flowers and herbs, a serving of herbal tea, and a card with your
personal message listing the flowers and herbs used in the bouquet with their
symbolic meanings from Flora's Dictionary: The Victorian Language of Herbs and Flowers.
Bouquets may be picked up or delivered. $37.50 per bouquet.
Moon Cottage
Rent this charming facility for your needs! Do you
need a place to see your clients, to hold an event, meditation, class, or
reading? This site was once the home of Lucia's Garden and continues to be a
space of joy for us to share! There is a special energy in Moon
Cottage--perhaps it comes from the many wonderful objects to appreciate, or from
the books on the shelves to enjoy from Lucia's private collection--maybe it
comes from the fairies dancing up from Lucia's herb garden... At any rate, it
holds a lot of love. It is perfect for your gatherings. Call and reserve Moon Cottage today!
