Southeast District Gathering - Herbs on the Bayou: Healing, Cooking, Greauxing
Join us in historic Baton Rouge for a weekend of hospitality, delicious food, fascinating shopping with our local vendors, and a remarkable program about the Healing Traditions of Acadiana by MaryAnn Armbruster and Mary Perrin, the co-chairs of the Healer’s Garden in Vermilionville; Ole South Kitchen Gardens by Kitty Bull, co-chair of our Heritage Herb Garden; and Louisiana Eats! with Poppy Tooker. Poppy’s popular radio program on Louisiana Public Broadcasting was named the Best National AND Best Regional Radio Program by the Taste Awards in April, 2018. She describes herself as a Culinary Activist.
The Epicurean Award-winning chef at the Crowne Plaza Hotel has created a menu especially for the Herb Society of America, everything from a special Raspberry Sage Smash cocktail when we gather informally on Friday night, October 5, to herb-inspired breakfast, lunch, and dinner on Saturday, October 6. You’ll understand why South Louisiana means delicious.
