For Herb Lovers
For Herb Lovers
Hopkins Green was the new venue for the annual Valley of Virginia Herb Guild’s herb sale Saturday. This was the best sale the Guild has had since 2018 with 145 sales. The weather cooperated for once (the last two years were cold and rainy) and there was nothing left on the tables at the sale’s end at noon. Jane Horton won the raffled container of herbs. New this year was a flea market table of garden items and horticultural books. (Claudia Schwab photos) 05/10/2023 12:00 AM
Volunteers Honored
Volunteers Honored
ConnectionPlus Healthcare + Hospice, formerly Rockbridge Area Hospice, held its annual Volunteer Appreciation luncheon last month. Volunteers serve a huge role at the organization and without them, it would not be able to provide the extra scope of services needed to ensure that its patients and their families can enjoy life for as long as possible, said a spokesperson. Recognized were administrative and patient care volunteer Peter Fyfe (left) and patient care volunteer Ann Nay. Together they have almost 60 years of dedication and loyalty to the organization. 05/10/2023 12:00 AM
