The Art of Making Tequila

March 1, 2022 by fifthseason 2 Comments

-Ryan Blankenship- Tequila was first distilled back in the early 16th century near the city of Tequila, which is located in the state of Jalisco about 35 miles from the city Guadalajara in Mexico.  Tequila is a distilled beverage from a mash made out of Blue Agave.  The Spanish conquistadors actually were the first to produce this spirit when they had run out of all of the brandy that they brought with them.  They were the first to understand how to extract the sweet nectar from the core … [Read more...] about The Art of Making Tequila

Epiphyllum, Queen of the Night

February 22, 2022 by fifthseason Leave a Comment

-Pam Scott- As an avid collector of all things green and growing, I am always on the lookout for plants that I find endlessly entertaining. Plants that bloom and have interesting growth habits are top on my list of favorites. I find that most epiphytic plants easily fit into the description of “endlessly entertaining”. Epiphytic, as opposed to terrestrial plants, are ones that grow on other plants. Staghorn ferns, some orchids, air plants, some bromeliads, and epiphyllum are all … [Read more...] about Epiphyllum, Queen of the Night

DIY CBD-Infused Honey

February 15, 2022 by fifthseason Leave a Comment

-Kristin Weeks- One of my favorite aspects of growing food and herbs is the culinary magic that happens after the harvest. From steeping a blend of freshly-picked herbs in the summertime for “sun tea”, to pickling beets and fermenting cabbage for delicious homemade kraut, to making elderberry syrup in the early fall for winter wellness, there’s just something so special about taking what you’ve grown with love and intention and making something amazing with it. Naturally, DIY gifts are my … [Read more...] about DIY CBD-Infused Honey

Let’s get this spring thing started!

February 1, 2022 by fifthseason Leave a Comment

-Pam Scott- It’s February 1st, and I am marveling at the insulating, nitrogen-rich blanket of snow covering my garden. Today I will be making my way out to the yard to take cuttings of quince and forsythia. They will be taken indoors and put into vases of warm water where they will be forced into bloom, filling the house with the colors and scents of spring. This is a yearly tradition for me to welcome in the beginning of “Gardeners Spring”. This is also the date when we at Fifth Season … [Read more...] about Let’s get this spring thing started!

A Brew For Every Season, and Every Season a Brew

December 20, 2021 by fifthseason Leave a Comment

-Elliott Richter- One of the best things about homebrewing is the vast selection of beers, ciders, meads, kombucha, and wines that you can create for any occasion. As the year unfolds, a cornucopia of flavors and ingredients is opened up for us to peruse and sample. We are able to create and develop, with high hopes, our year’s best concoctions and libations to be enjoyed, by not just ourselves, but in the company of our loved ones and companions. One of the most celebrated homebrew … [Read more...] about A Brew For Every Season, and Every Season a Brew

Growing Poinsettias Year Round

December 14, 2021 by fifthseason Leave a Comment

-Pam Scott- This time of year, many of us are decking our halls with boughs of holly, evergreens, and the perennial favorite… poinsettias. I have to admit that in the past I have had a rather “whatever” attitude when it came to treating poinsettias as an indoor tropical houseplant. I love to use them to fill in spots that need seriously fabulous seasonal color in my home or as the perfect holiday gift to give to a friend or relative when I have no clue what to give them. I considered them as … [Read more...] about Growing Poinsettias Year Round

DIY Pizza Dough with Brewers Yeast

December 7, 2021 by fifthseason Leave a Comment

-Kristin Weeks- Not everyone shopping our homebrew department for yeast is actually brewing beer. We often get folks looking for fresh yeast for baking. This summer, a friend turned me on to what she described as “hands down, the best pizza dough in town” from White Labs Kitchen & Tap here in Asheville, NC. White Labs is a San Diego-based yeast production company and a popular yeast brand among homebrewers. In 2017, they opened a second location in Asheville that aside from the lab has a … [Read more...] about DIY Pizza Dough with Brewers Yeast
