When I was a volunteer in the Saugus Ironworks garden a few years ago, sage was one of the more familiar plants visitors recognized, if not by its appearance, then certainly by its foliage. One day a visitor from Italy came by with his son and lingered by the sage plants, which were especially aromatic because I was weeding around them. He said it reminded him BUYER2 SELLER1 Margossian Ruth L Est Medeiros, Wesley E Vivenzio, Marianne K of his father, who drank sage tea every day for his health. The original meaning of the plant’s genus name, Salvia, means to save or heal, and it got that name because of its medicinal reputation. It is recognized today as an antioxidant and in traditional medicine had a wide variety of uses. Common sage usually has grayish green leaves, a color often described as “sage green.” Ornamental varieties with colorful foliage are less hardy, and I usually consider them annuals. The variety ‘purpurascens’ has purplish overtones in the foliage, and ‘tricolor’ has white and purple areas as well as green. Both of these are edible and have good fl avor, but you shouldn’t expect them to be back next year if they are growing outdoors in the garden. They can tolerate some frost, but our winters tend to get a little too cold once the ground is actually frozen. Oregano, marjoram and thyme are also hardy perennial herbs in our area. Several kinds of mint, though not so traditionally used in the turkey, also are a reliable perennial in our gardens.

Food may be the centerpiece of the table, but key to the enjoyment of the day is certainly gathering with loved ones if possible. Many people this year are braving all the challenges of traveling by plane, car, bus and train to be with family and friends again. Many of us may be recalling the words to Massachusetts poet and activist Lydia Maria Child’s poem “The New England Boys’ Song about Thanksgiving Day” even if we don’t necessarily recognize the poem’s name. Most of us just call it by its fi rst line, “Over the River and Through The Wood.” Best known in her day for her abolitionist and women’s rights activism, as well as like to share with The Saugus Advocate?
