Karen O’Brien will guide participants through Elm Bank’s Teaching Herb Garden, and show how easy it is to propagate herbs, either by sowing, layering, dividing or through cuttings, in this Massachusetts Horticultural Society class on Saturday, June 27, from 10 – 12. Participants will take away an herb or two for their own gardens or pots, and a greater understanding of how herbs can enhance their lives.

Karen O’Brien is a member of the New England Unit of The Herb Society of America (NEUHSA) and maintains their Teaching Herb Garden at Elm Bank. The NEUHSA installed the Teaching Herb Garden on the grounds of the Gardens at Elm Bank in 2001. The garden was designed by Marie Stella, a noted landscape historian and designer, and a former member of the New England Unit of The Herb Society of America.

Please attend dressed to get your hands a little dirty in the garden. Lecture Fee: Mass Hort Members $5, Non-Members $8. Register online at www.masshort.org.
