Garden Tours in Vermont

Above is a pool with a wonderful garden nearby. Imagine floating on your back and looking into this garden!




On Sunday, June 29th, I toured four home gardens around the Westminster area.It was a fundraiser for their Westminster Cares program which ministers to the elderly in the area. My favorite garden was the series of gardens around Gordon Hayward's house. My mother had given me one of his books a few years ago when I moved into the Vermont House. When I asked Gordon how long he had been working on his gardens, he said 25 years. That gave me great hope! Mine are on their way and he is an inspiration. Here is Gordon signing books with visitors. No, I am not in the picture!
