More Than a Garnish: Unlocking the Health Benefits of Chives!
When you think of chives, you probably think of that little green sprinkle on a baked potato or a scoop of sour cream. But this little member of the allium family—a cousin to garlic and onions—is so much more than a pretty topping. This pretty addition to your garden is very easy to grow and harvest.
Think of chives as having a similar medicinal profile to garlic, just a bit gentler. They’ve been used traditionally to aid digestion, which is why a sprinkle of them on your food can help a heavy meal go down easier.
