SUMMARY:Shaker Herb Garden Tour

Along the way\, Lisa will share stories of how these herbs were cultivated and used by the Enfield Shakers\, while exploring the ecology\, botany\, and practical uses of the plants growing in the garden today. \nA lifelong science educator with a background in environmental chemistry and ecology\, Lisa brings curiosity\, enthusiasm\, and a love of learning to every tour. After a 31-year career teaching science at Lebanon High School\, she joined the Museum as an Interpreter and educator\, where she enjoys helping visitors discover the rich connections between plants\, history\, and the Shaker way of life.\nThe Museum’s herb garden features many of the same plants that were grown by the Shakers as part of their thriving herb and medicine enterprise. \nSaturdays at Noon. \nTours are free with Museum admission and are open to visitors of all ages.
