Goose Creek Herb Guild

The Goose Creek Herb Guild was organized in 1980 under the name Oatlands Herb Guild. Original activities included workshops on cultivating and drying herbs, recipes for oils and dishes with herb ingredients, and the formation of a club library with books on horticulture. Today the organization remains active, offering scholarships to students at Northern Virginia Community College who are specializing in horticulture. The Guild has also sponsored the Goose Creek Herb Guild Fair, in which vendors from different locations throughout the state sell a wide variety of plants and herbs and demonstrate herbal crafts.
