The Charlotte Herb Guild
Meeting of September 15, 2019
McGill Rose Garden
400 North Davidson Street
President Susan Poel called the meeting to order at 2:30p.m. She
announced that members Carol White, Hilda Norwood, and she had invited guests. Since
members came to view Virginia’s Memorial Herb Garden, hostesses Sandie Fenton,
Hilda Norwood, Millie Snyder, and Mary Ann Nagel, made Virginia’s recipes from
the The Charlotte Herb Guild Cooks Again in
her honor.
Ann Baldwin gave a brief update on the November meeting. The
Herb Guild will be decorating the Garden Council House for the holidays. She
requests that members start thinking of ideas – no plastic- and send them to Ann. Round work tables will be set up for members at the meeting.
Refreshments will be provided by Beth, Lynn, and Carol K.
Pat Siegfried asked that all members RSVP to her by October 5 for the Annual Tea Party, which will be held on
Saturday, October 12 at the Charlotte Museum of History. From 1-2p.m. there
will be a tour of the Museum, and then the tea party will start at 2p.m. Attendees
are asked to make some food to complement the teas. Guests are welcome for a
$20 fee. The Herb Guild must be out of the Museum by 5 p.m., so Pat is asking
for at least eight members to help clean up. Please email Pat with your availability or call her at 704-562-8618.
The group then learned about the changes at McGill Rose Garden from
Eric Ritchie, with help from Craig. Craig displayed and discussed some
relatively rare herbs that he was introduced to by Virginia. The members had an
opportunity to enjoy a stroll through Virginia’s Memorial Herb Garden.
Respectfully submitted,
Susan Oleson
Communications Chair
