The Louisa Herb Guild is a group of herb enthusiasts committed to bringing Louisa County history to life through gardening. We began in 2014 with a 20' x 20' demonstration herb garden, growing herbs typical of the 18th and 19th centuries in Central Virginia. Our objectives are to: 1. Maintain and grow a demonstration Heritage Garden at the Heritage Farm 2. Educate visitors about herbs through special programs 3. Develop a self-guided tour with herb identification smart phone app. The Herb Guild will resume outdoor meetings in spring 2021.
