HerbDay
A National Celebration
Five national non-profit organizations working together as the HerbDay Coalition* announced that the first annual HerbDay will be held on Saturday, October 14, 2006 with a national, annual celebration to be held the second Saturday each October.
HerbDay is a coordinated series of public educational events celebrating the importance of herbs and herbalism through harmonized, independently planned activities that will occur on the second Saturday, each October, and during the week leading up to that date. The activities will occur at retail stores, botanical gardens and parks throughout North America. In addition to local and regional events, the HerbDay Coalition will produce a multi-day event at the U.S. Botanic Garden in Washington, DC.
