Memorial Day Weekend is here and before we break out the grill we would like to take a moment to honor those who paid the ultimate sacrifice for our freedom.

Many of us will be enjoying the beautiful weather this weekend with family and friends and if you're looking to make a splash at the annual BBQ, and we don't mean a cannonball in the pool, consider using the homegrown fruit and citrus in your backyard. Homegrown fruit and citrus taste way better than store-bought plus no pesticides. 

Below are a few recipes using homegrown lemons that will sure to impress your family and friends. Also, don't forget to include the vegetable garden as well if you have one!
