Founded to bring together people passionate about growing, using, and sharing knowledge about herbs — our group celebrates the beauty, flavor, healing properties, and versatility of herbs in everyday life.
To foster a love of herbs, promote sustainable herb gardening, educate our community about their many uses, and support local green initiatives through collaboration and shared enthusiasm.
Four ongoing efforts that keep our members busy — and the herbs of Walker County thriving — year after year.
Our signature fundraiser, now in its 14th+ year, typically held in late April at local venues like The Plantique or 4 Seasons. The day features herb plant sales, vendors, demonstrations, food, and family-friendly activities — with proceeds supporting our community projects.
In partnership with the Jasper Public Library, we maintain a free seed library offering herb and vegetable seed packets to encourage home gardening. We restock regularly and invite participants to share photos of their successes on our Facebook group page.
We partner with other organizations across Walker County to expand community gardening projects and events — pooling expertise, plants, and volunteer hours wherever they're needed most.
From first-time growers to lifelong gardeners, we provide a friendly space to learn, exchange seeds, plants, and cuttings, and build the kind of lasting connections that only a shared love of growing things can create.
Meetings feature educational presentations, hands-on demonstrations, plant swaps, gardening tips, recipe sharing, and lively discussions on culinary herbs, medicinal plants, herbal crafts, and sustainable practices.
Join us to grow, learn, and cultivate community — one herb at a time.
