French students enthralled with Charleston's gardens
By HERB FRAZIER
Special to CharlestonCurrents.com
AUG.
16, 2010 - Two French horticultural students visiting Magnolia Plantation
and Gardens this summer find excitement in what "binyahs"
in Lowcountry South Carolina take for granted.

The
moss-draped oak trees throughout the area and the presence of the
European invention of a romantic garden in a Southern landscape
at Magnolia surprised Jean-Christophe Pigeon and Thibaut Jeandel
when they arrived here earlier this summer.
They've
also toured gardens elsewhere in the South and in downtown Charleston,
particularly the private gardens in the historic district designed
in the early 20th century by famed landscape architect Lutrell Briggs.
"We
visit the gardens to see different plants and learn the histories
of the gardens," Pigeon says. The southern United States, he
says, "is a special area where everything grows."
Pigeon
and Jeandel are students at the prestigious Versailles National
School of Landscape Architecture in Paris. Pigeon, a graphic designer,
is studying how to design parks and gardens. Thibaut is using his
knowledge of sound engineering to explore ways to amplify the natural
sounds in a garden to enhance the experience.
In
return for their experience in Magnolia, Pigoen and Jeandel will
help Magnolia locate rare varieties of camellias and azaleas in
Europe that weren't imported to America three centuries ago.
Their
visit is tied to Magnolia's affiliation with the Great Gardens of
America Preservation Alliance, which grew out of a meeting at Magnolia
in 2008 to preserve ancient varieties of camellias and azaleas.
Since its inception, the alliance has grown to more than 30 gardens
in 10 southern states. Magnolia is the nation's last romantic garden,
a concept developed in Europe.
After
Pigeon and Thibaut return to Paris this week, they plan to look
for varieties of camellias and azaleas that were not imported to
Charleston. Miles Beach, director of Magnolia's camellia collection,
says there are many cultivars in Europe that never came to the United
States in the 18th century. "We want to get those, too,"
he adds.
Tom
Johnson, Magnolia's director of gardens, says, "We are hoping
that through this relationship (with Pigeon and Thibaut) we can
make our romantic garden more in tune with what was in France and
take the concept as close to the roots for the future.
"When
we set up this internship we were looking for an exchange that goes
beyond acquiring plant material," Johnson says. "We want
American students to travel to France next year to stimulate an
exchange of culture around horticulture."
Herb Frazier is a Charleston-based freelance writer. He is the
author of "Gullah Memories Behind God's Back," which is
scheduled to be released in the early fall by the Evening Post Publishing
Co. The book is a collection of stories from black and white residents
of the Cainhoy, Wando and Huger communities and St. Thomas and Daniel
islands.

All about
free antibiotics and that celebrated cherry juice
By ANDY BRACK, publisher
AUG.
16, 2010 - Call me slow to get hip to the news that Publix's pharmacies
offer free generic oral antibiotics.

Brack
|
A
couple of weeks back when a child developed an earache, Dr. Malcolm
Rhodes at Parkwood Pediatrics prescribed the pink stuff - amoxicillin.
In passing, he mentioned that Publix would provide the medicine
for free.
Surprised,
I went to the Publix on James Island and found out it was true.
Thirty minutes after turning in the order, I got a 10-day supply
- worth more than $31 according to the Publix printout -- for free.
Wow.
What a great community service.
"The
program has been very successful and thousands of prescriptions
have been filled since we launched the program in 2007," said
Publix spokeswoman Brenda Reid from Atlanta. "As health care
and the cost of living continue to climb this is one way to give
back to our customers by providing this service at no charge."
(We couldn't get a comment from a local Publix pharmacist.)
Now,
you and I know that a generic antibiotic like amoxicillin really
doesn't cost $31 to Publix. This pink stuff has been around for
years. The dose given to us was probably worth a dollar or two.
Still,
Publix has found an innovative way to help customers - and draw
in potential customers - in economically challenging times. It's
a very smart business move. In fact, now that you know the company
offers free antibiotics at its pharmacies, there's more of a chance
you'll shop at Publix, or, at least buy something there while you're
waiting for your medicine.
Of
the grocery chain's 1,021 stores in five states, more than 800 include
pharmacies, including local stores on James Island, Mount Pleasant,
Johns Island, North Charleston and Goose Creek.
Click
here for a list of eight antibiotics the store offers for free.

Cherry
juice update: Last week during a trip to Atlanta, I found the
much-heralded
Turkish sour cherry juice described a couple of weeks ago.
Bereket
Turkish Grocery in Norcross, Ga., offers the juice in 330ml
cans and 1-liter cartons. The imported juice - the same brand as
I enjoyed throughout Turkey - has the refreshing, captivating, sweet-sour
taste that I was starting to miss since last month's trip.
I
bought a case. (12 cartons for about $21.)

Event
celebrates solidarity of Jewish women
A
first-of-its-kind day of networking and workshops, Connecting Jewish
Women, will celebrate the solidarity of Jewish women in the Lowcountry
on Aug. 29 from 9 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.
Sponsored
by Charleston Jewish Federation, this full day program will take
place at the Double Tree Guest Suites, downtown Charleston.
"Our
vision and purpose for 'Charleston Jewish Women: Celebrate the Journey'
event began as a wish; a wish to build relationships and camaraderie,
and enhance the overall sense of community among Jewish women in
the Charleston area. We hope this event will turn strangers into
friends and create a greater sense of unity as a group. As we all
know, a strong sense of community inspires people to work together
toward achieving greater goals beyond that which can be accomplished
individually," said Sharon Becker, co-chair.

Ranch
receives gift to build first independent living cottage
Eagle
Harbor Ranch in Summerville received a $25,000 donation from Children's
Cancer Cooperative to build its first independent living cottage.
This cottage will serve as a transitional home to the boys who have
successfully graduated from high school and are starting their own
lives. This cottage will hold two boys and will be 700 square feet.
There will be two bedrooms, a living area with a kitchenette, a
bathroom and a storage area.
The
boys will be able to live in this transitional cottage until the
age of 21. They will not have to pay rent, but will be required
to pay utilities, meet with counselors weekly and allow counselors
to meet regularly with their employers and college professors.
Eagle
Harbor Ranch already has two homes with eight boys and this will
be the first independent cottage to be built. The ranch is a nonprofit
home for abused, neglected and abandoned boys between the ages of
6 and 21 in the Summerville area of Berkeley County. The boys join
a natural family setting with houseparents, chores, devotions, vacations
and discipline. s. Eagle Harbor has had to turn away hundreds of
children because of no open room. The plan is to build four more
homes and the independent cottage for
the older boys. For more information,

Wine
fest picks Lowcountry Local First as signature charity
The BB&T
Charleston Wine + Food Festival, scheduled for March 3-6, 2011,
has chosen the community-based, nonprofit organization Lowcountry
Local First as the signature charity this year. Festival supporters
and guests lend a hand in raising proceeds that directly benefit
this organization.
 |
Lowcountry
Local First advocates the benefits of a healthy local economy
by strengthening community support for independent locally owned
businesses and farmers. The Festival's 2011 charitable donation
will support LLF's Farm Fresh Food program, which is aimed at increasing
the availability of local, sustainably produced products for chefs,
grocers, and consumers through an increase in the number of locally-based
farms and farmers; providing greater access to land suitable for
agricultural production; integrating local foods into area schools
and institutions; and enhancing public awareness in the significance
of supporting local famers.
"Lowcountry Local First was a natural choice for the Festival
as the Signature Charity because their mission to enhance Charleston's
culinary community is so closely tied with ours," said Rick
Widman, chairman of the festival's Board of Directors. Last year
the Festival raised an estimated $77,000 for their Signature Charities
and scholarships combined.
The annual BB&T Charleston Wine + Food Festival, March 3-6,
2011, celebrates a local food culture rich in tradition, James Beard
award-winning chefs and the second-best city to visit in the U.S.,
according to Conde Nast Traveler's 2009 Readers Choice Awards. The
four-day event is praised as one of the top five food and wine festivals
in the U.S. by Forbes Traveler. The Festival, a non-profit organization,
benefits local culinary charities and scholarships.

a space created to support the surrounding community and encourage

"Buying
a historic home can come with a lot of hoops to jump through and
the team at the downtown Ikon office is well-versed in the requirements
for mortgages for these unique properties," Jewell said. "We
love this neighborhood and we're so excited to be a part of its
revitalization and hope to do whatever we can to encourage it to

ENCYCLOPEDIA
Pioneering
physician founds hospital in Charleston
Lucy
Hughes Brown was born in April 1863 in North Carolina and was orphaned.
She graduated in 1885 from Scotia Seminary in North Carolina. After
completing a medical degree at the Women's Medical College of Pennsylvania
in Philadelphia in March 1894, she was the first African American
woman to receive a professional license from the North Carolina
Medical Board. She established a practice at Wilmington, North Carolina,
and married Rev. David Brown, who was the minister of a Wilmington
Presbyterian church.
After
practicing medicine in North Carolina for two years, Brown moved
to Charleston and became the first black female physician to practice
in South Carolina. With several other African Americans, she contributed
to the establishment of the Cannon Hospital and Training School
for Nurses in 1897, which was later renamed McClennan-Banks Hospital.
Brown headed the department of nursing training. She presented lectures
and stressed that practical experience was preferable to textbook
knowledge, although she advised students to prepare with a combination
of both classroom and practical knowledge. The first class of nurses
benefiting from Brown's guidance graduated in 1898.
As
a recipe for their success, Brown urged graduates to embrace "great
adaptability, good judgement, the ability to hold one's tongue and
a willingness to do work outside the usual line," and to good-naturedly
"take for their services what their patients can afford to
pay." She frequently disseminated advice through her roles
as an editor of the Hospital Herald and as secretary of the Cannon
Hospital Association.
Brown
also worked to advance the condition of African American women outside
the Cannon Hospital. She served as a delegate to the National Colored
Woman's Congress at the 1895 Atlanta Exposition and assisted in
the creating of resolutions addressing southern race relations and
demanding safer conditions for women on public transportation. Brown
retired in 1904 due to illness and died on June 26, 1911.
