This week I’m hosting my second garden tour to benefit the Eleanor Whitmore Early Childhood Center in East Hampton. It’s the only non-profit childcare center in my area of the East End that provides affordable early education, and I’m so happy to be supporting them again this summer!
Since I’m hosting the tour, I asked my friend Miguel Flores-Vianna to come over and take some photos of the garden. What do you think??
Ask Ina:

Cooking with really good fresh produce is never easier than in the summer. The tomatoes in my garden actually taste like tomatoes, and stone fruits at the market are actually ripe! Here are six simple summer recipes that I love, but it’s really about what’s in season where you live:
And, as a bonus, here are six fun summer desserts!
