Our Garden

Welcome to our garden!

We have been working on it for about 16 years.

When we bought the property in 1993, it was nothing but a cow farm with some trees and underbrush. We saw that it had great potential though.

Here you can see some pictures of what it has evolved into today.

Here are some tips to consider if you are buying property to garden on.

Tip for buying property if you like to garden

We dug a hole on the property that we were considering to see if it had good soil.

We know that being bottom land made it a great place for a garden.

Here you see one of my favorite perennials called Dianthus, or pinks.

Below is our raised herb bed planted with spring tulips.

Adding a fringe tree to your garden like we did is a beautiful addition to any yard.

It always gets a lot of comments whenever it's in bloom.

Bluebells in spring are one of our favorites!

I recently posted a page on poisonous plants that you will not want your favorite pet or grandchild to be ingesting.

We would love to see what your garden looks like. We know you love it and have worked hard in it, so let us join you in your triumph!

Have you added a great new feature, tried a new plant that you love, fallen in love with gardening for the first time? Maybe you just want to add photos of you and your family enjoying the garden. We want to see. Show us!
