One of the activities at the Michigan Herb Associates annual conference is the plant auction. This auction raises money to support the 4H Children's Garden located on the campus of Michigan State University. If you have never been to this garden I strongly urge you to make a visit. This is a garden that is wonderful for children of all ages, including many as old as myself.
There is always an educational display created by the many different herb associations located across the state of Michigan. I love browsing through the displays and discovering the many creative ways herbalists use the herbs from their gardens.
Learning how to make herbal liqueurs was one of the many workshops offered at this year's conference Who knew there were so many options for using the herbs we grow? Now if only spring would come!
