Herb of the Week: Chives!

What's happening in the BBG Herb Garden and kitchen this week? We take a closer look at a perennial herb with grassy foliage and lovely purple pom-pom flowers.

Spring Bounty: Violets!

What's happening this week in the Herb Garden and kitchen? Lots! This week, the kitchen crew prepared violet simple syrup, which can be added to drinks of all kinds — lemonade, club soda or your favorite cocktail.

Herb Associates Yesterday and Today

The Berkshire Botanical Garden’s Herb Associates began in 1957 when three women who loved and grew herbs — Gertrude Burdsall, Emily Rose, and Amy Bess-Miller — decided to make and sell herbal products to benefit the Garden.
