Food Spotlight: Mint

Mint is growing like wild here in Eastern PA. For anyone who grows it, they’ll tell you it’s a bit unruly in that it just grows and grows and grows.

Mint is a close relative of spearmint and peppermint. It is great for digestion as it helps calm those internal nerves. (For more information on eating to beat stress, click here) It also is a great breathe freshener and wakes up the senses.
