A three acre perennial garden open to the public through the early 2009 growing season.

We sell a selection of perennials and are working on food production and preservation in an attempt to keep food as "local" as possible.

Although not formally certified as "organic", no pesticides are used in this garden, and no sewage sludge is used anywhere. We don't care to live around toxic chemicals, and the plants do fine without them. Horse dressing is used as mulch, and large amounts of leaves and grass clippings are worked into the soil each year in an effort to practice natural, sustainable gardening. As a result, Carolyn calls the garden a "Bug Sanctuary", and a "Worm Farm". The "Food Chain" is uninterrupted. The balance of "bug eat bug" is kept, and the plants thrive.

Winters in Maine offer time to rest, and enjoy artistic work that can't be done in Summer when weeding and meeting garden visitors is the first priority.

Each creation is a unique, everlasting collage of nature's flowers and moths preserved in an oak shadow-box frame.
