Tour Information by Herbalist Sylvia Newberry

A Garden Tour was held last Saturday, June 4, 2011 by herbalist Sylvia Newberry and Master Gardener Tina Barney in the Mt Ascutney Hospital/Healing Arts Center in Windsor, VT. Sylvia toured us trough the plants, discussing common herb uses, identification. She brought all her work to display how they look and to explain the benefits.

Lobelia seedlings planted by Sylvia.

The time was perfect for me to transplant some Lobelia inflata in my relaxation spot during that morning
The tour was for about 2 hours.
