2027 Medicinal Herb Garden Walks
Avena Botanicals' Gardens
Led by herbalist and Biodynamic gardener Deb Soule
Join herbalist and gardener Deb Soule in exploring the lush beauty of the medicinal herb gardens at Avena Botanicals in Rockport, Maine -- just a ten minute drive from the beautiful ocean coast. Deb is the author of the book The Healing Garden, an inspiring guide to herb gardening and crafting herbal remedies. She is the founder of Avena Botanicals, an herbal apothecary that grows ingredients for its artisanal herbal products in the gardens she began creating there decades ago.
In this delightful hour-long tour, Deb will invite you into the pollinator Sanctuary Garden, where you will learn about a variety of medicinal plants that you can add to your own garden for your own beneficial use. Many of these herbs are also of benefit to hummingbirds, bees, butterflies, and other pollinators.
We are offering only a few limited attendance herb walks in the summer of 2026. Please join us! Children ages four and under may attend the event for free. Adults and children ages 5 and older may buy a general admission ticket. No tickets will be sold at the gate on the day of the event.
Please limit your attendance to one garden walk per summer, to give others who are interested an opportunity to attend. Spaces are limited and tickets sell out each year.
If you appreciate our work, please also consider donating to support the pollinator Sanctuary Garden.

Contemplative Practice in Avena Botanicals' Sanctuary Garden
Fridays, May 21 - September 10, 2027 from 7:30 - 8:30 am
Avena Botanicals
Join us weekly to share contemplative silence in our Sanctuary Garden. We warmly invite people of all faiths (or none), to sit quietly and be nourished by birdsong, the wind, shared community silence, and the healing gifts our gardens embody. Quietly come and leave as you wish between 7:30 - 8:30 am. Several benches for sitting are in the center of our Sanctuary Garden.
