Your garden will love my Witch’s Brew….

1. Start with your cauldron (or soup pot😉) full of water.

2. Add in a bunch of banana peels.

3. Bring to a boil and let it brew for awhile.

4. Cackle as you cook. 🧙‍♀️

5. Then cool, straining out the banana peels.

6. Once cool, pour lovingly by the cupful at the base of your plants in the garden for a potassium boost.

7. Enjoy a bountiful harvest of veggies!

Helpful hint: I keep a bag going in the freezer to toss in my banana peels until I’m ready to make my witch’s brew. That way you don’t have to eat a ton of them at once and it builds up your stash over time! 🍌

Laura McKenna
Laura McKenna grew up in Ohio and got her first job in radio in La Crosse in 2005. She packed up her stuff, made the move, and has been in Wisconsin ever since! Her favorite season is winter but she loves to spend all summer in her vegetable garden. When she isn't in her pink kitchen cooking up vegetarian recipes, more than likely she's taking bubble baths, reading mystery novels (sometimes while in a bubble bath), cheering for THEE Ohio State Buckeyes, or officiating weddings! She married her best friend from college last year but they still don't live in the same house yet. Laura's favorite way to spend a Friday night is watching Dateline with her cat (Phil Dawson) on her lap. She's thrilled to be back keeping you company during the workday on 105-7 CFW!
