We&#8217;ve had more rain in Israel than we&#8217;ve had for 50 years. That&#8217;s why we&#8217;ve spent a lot of time indoors this year and the garden has been dormant. Now the clouds are clearing and hopefully the big masses of rain have passed. Both Israelis and we are slowly waking up, daring to go outside and enjoy the greening nature with its beautiful spring flowers that cover entire mountain ranges.    <\/p>\n\n<p>Time for us to tackle the garden too. In addition to the many ornamental plants, our vegetable patches, fruit trees and herb beds also need attention. We particularly enjoy the many herbs. Three different types of basil and mint, coriander, rosemary, thyme and sage, to name but a few.   <\/p>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignright size-large\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"400\" src=\"https:\/\/gilboapassion.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/gaeten-blog-alex-gartenbeet-gilboa-passion.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6691\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gilboapassion.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/gaeten-blog-alex-gartenbeet-gilboa-passion.jpg 640w, https:\/\/gilboapassion.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/gaeten-blog-alex-gartenbeet-gilboa-passion-600x375.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Not just for us<\/h2>\n\n<p>We like spending time in the garden because it offers us variety and, unlike many Israelis, we have some space. It&#8217;s great to just go to the raised bed and get fresh herbs for sauces and dishes. <\/p>\n\n<p>This freshness is also well received by our guests.  <\/p>\n\n<p>We have reported several times that we keep chickens that are fed lots of greens and herbs in addition to high-quality grain feed. The eggs simply taste great.<br\/> Another highlight has been available in our house since last December: our own bread.<br\/>Our pride and joy is our sourdough bread, which is simply delicious. <\/p>\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-3 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><ul class=\"blocks-gallery-grid\"><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"999\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/gilboapassion.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/broteigenes-999x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"6675\" data-link=\"https:\/\/gilboapassion.com\/?attachment_id=6675\" class=\"wp-image-6675\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gilboapassion.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/broteigenes-999x1024.jpg 999w, https:\/\/gilboapassion.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/broteigenes-600x615.jpg 600w, https:\/\/gilboapassion.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/broteigenes-768x787.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 999px) 100vw, 999px\" \/><figcaption class=\"blocks-gallery-item__caption\">Our own sourdough bread<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/gilboapassion.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/3F69C575-FBB5-4CE7-A89E-EB4824EAB0CD-1024x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"6681\" data-link=\"https:\/\/gilboapassion.com\/?attachment_id=6681\" class=\"wp-image-6681\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gilboapassion.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/3F69C575-FBB5-4CE7-A89E-EB4824EAB0CD-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/gilboapassion.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/3F69C575-FBB5-4CE7-A89E-EB4824EAB0CD-600x600.jpg 600w, https:\/\/gilboapassion.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/3F69C575-FBB5-4CE7-A89E-EB4824EAB0CD-768x768.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"blocks-gallery-item__caption\">Salad from our garden<br\/><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1021\" src=\"https:\/\/gilboapassion.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/305522A7-8CB1-4C10-9843-8E9FF9DE03E6-1024x1021.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"6683\" data-link=\"https:\/\/gilboapassion.com\/?attachment_id=6683\" class=\"wp-image-6683\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gilboapassion.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/305522A7-8CB1-4C10-9843-8E9FF9DE03E6-1024x1021.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/gilboapassion.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/305522A7-8CB1-4C10-9843-8E9FF9DE03E6-600x598.jpg 600w, https:\/\/gilboapassion.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/305522A7-8CB1-4C10-9843-8E9FF9DE03E6-768x765.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"blocks-gallery-item__caption\">The chickens are doing well<br\/><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/gilboapassion.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/IMG_7523-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"6687\" data-link=\"https:\/\/gilboapassion.com\/?attachment_id=6687\" class=\"wp-image-6687\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gilboapassion.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/IMG_7523-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/gilboapassion.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/IMG_7523-600x450.jpg 600w, https:\/\/gilboapassion.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/IMG_7523-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"blocks-gallery-item__caption\">Herbs in our raised beds<br\/><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/gilboapassion.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/IMG_7530-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"6689\" data-link=\"https:\/\/gilboapassion.com\/?attachment_id=6689\" class=\"wp-image-6689\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gilboapassion.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/IMG_7530-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/gilboapassion.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/IMG_7530-600x450.jpg 600w, https:\/\/gilboapassion.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/IMG_7530-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"blocks-gallery-item__caption\">Drip irrigation<br\/><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/gilboapassion.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/7AD1118C-9F8A-4259-B440-22EA99FFFB1C-1-1024x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"6693\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/gilboapassion.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/7AD1118C-9F8A-4259-B440-22EA99FFFB1C-1.jpg\" data-link=\"https:\/\/gilboapassion.com\/?attachment_id=6693\" class=\"wp-image-6693\"\/><\/figure><\/li><\/ul><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Self-catering We already talked about this in the previous blog post.
