"Come Let Us Grow Together"

10/24/2026

The Advance Garden Club maintains the Healing Garden Project at Novant Clemmons Medical Center throughout the year. On a lovely fall day in October, members got to work in the garden using trowels, gloves, trash bags, and buckets. They diligently dug up the existing spring/summer plantings and replaced them with fresh potting soil, violas, and snapdragons. It was a great team effort, and everyone looks forward to seeing the garden grow and flourish for the enjoyment of patients, staff, and visitors.

The Advance Garden Club held its monthly meeting on Tuesday, October 13, and welcomed Patti Huggins, Extension Master Gardener Volunteer for Davidson County, as a guest speaker. In her presentation on the “Joy of Growing and Using Herbs,” she explained that an herb is a seed-producing plant that can be an annual, biennial, or perennial that doesn’t develop a woody stem and dies down at the end of a growing season with plant parts valued for their medicinal, savory, or aromatic qualities. She talked about the benefits of herbs, how to grow them, how to harvest them, and how to preserve them. She also shared her favorite herbs for cooking and making arrangements.
