What We Do
We hold a yearly plant and herb sale in May at the Holy Trinity Evangelical Lutheran Church in Newington, NH. The sale includes a selection of organic, native, and member grown plants.
We hold herb study groups in members’ homes. Here we study in-depth individual herbs or a selection of herbs including
herb(s) profile, complete a project using the herb(s), and enjoy
herbal tasty treats .
Proceeds from our plant sale are used to support gardening projects in and around the seacoast. This includes supporting programs in food insecure areas.
