However, in recent years it has fallen into disarray and could benefit from refurbishment."Meet me in the Garden" has created enthusiasm and energy for a working project that led us into fulfilling our objective, which is to “stimulate interest in and knowledge of flower gardens and to promote the home and civic improvement of grounds within the community.” (Hibriten Garden Club Constitution, Article II – Objective)We encourage you to fulfill your passion and enjoy these gardens!  https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events2/banners/68ebc170-9755-11ef-9e9c-97fc12ccc2c3-rimg-w692-h740-dc181b14-gmir.jpg About Hibriten Garden ClubIn 1948, Our founding mothers knew that the roles of women in community would change, as they had throughout history. As WWII ended, the Hibriten Garden Club story was evolving. We really began in Marion, VA, where Riley Thomas Greer had established a roots and herbs business in 1903, which he named Greer Drug Company. When Mr. Greer’s daughter Elizabeth married Edgar Dobbin and moved to Lenoir, he moved here to be near her, and built a home on Rectory Hill.Edgar and Elizabeth Dobbin’s daughter Lib married William White at the close of WWII and together they joined R.T. Greer at Greer Drug in Lenoir, eventually buying the business and transitioning to the manufacture of sterile, injectable allergenic extracts to test and treat allergy patients, both human and veterinary.Meanwhile, Edgar Dobbin’s business partner at City Flour &amp; Feed Company in Lenoir was Gamewell Charles McGimsey. Mr. McGimsey’s wife ,Bertha, and Elizabeth Dobbin were best friends. Together, these two enterprising women conceptualized and established a garden club, engaging their like-minded friends at a time when flowers must have seemed more optimistic than the necessary war-time Victory Gardens.We have no record(s) of exactly why we were named Hibriten Garden Club, but the mountain is as much a part of our community now as it was at its charter formation in 1948. Our thanks to Liza Plaster and Waitsel Smith, whose family histories and photographs are our earliest known documentation.About HibritenIt’s no secret that Hibriten, Beloved Mountain, has been a symbol of nature’s majesty in Lenoir and Caldwell County for hundreds of years. At an elevation of 2,265 feet, residents know they are home when they catch a glimpse of the mountain, whether returning from a long journey or just a day trip.With native trees, and an abundance of wildflowers and shrubs, the mountain is ablaze with color in the fall. Many years ago, huge flocks of turkeys roosted in the trees and were sustenance for American Indians and pioneers who hunted and feasted on them.On the side of the mountain is a cave, said to have been excavated by men searching for gold in the late 1700s. During the Civil War, this cave served as a hideout from Stoneman’s Raiders when they swept through Lenoir in 1865. Over the years, families have used the mountain for camping and decades ago, a pavilion was built for dancing and entertainment.Artists paint Hibriten in all seasons and poets rhyme tributes to the mountain. With streets, businesses and military regiments reflecting the name of the mountain in 1948 and with an obvious abundance of flora and fauna on continuous display, is it any wonder that the founding mothers of Hibriten Garden Club chose this name for their newly formed alliance?  https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events8/banners/6968b9a0-9755-11ef-9e9c-97fc12ccc2c3-rimg-w968-h740-dc474a43-gmir.jpg Important InformationTicket holder assumes all risks and hereby releases Hibriten Garden Club and its membership, the homeowners and volunteers from all liabilities, costs and expenses arising from injuries, death or damages incurred in connection with the Hibriten Garden Club "Meet Me in the Garden" walking tour, and Triangle Park, owned by the city of Lenoir and located at 500 Highland Ave. SW, Lenoir.Animals and smoking are prohibited within Triangle Park and all tour gardens.All sales are final.
