About

I moved onto my property 45 years ago with my ex-partner. She liked the garden at the Boonville Hotel so much, she had their gardener, Russell Link, wildlife biologist and landscape designer, put one in here. The perennial garden is well established with new plantings each year by my gardener, who maintains it now. There are older fruit trees I planted 42 years ago, and two grape arbors almost 100 years old. This was an old homestead, with the original house built in 1906. I did lots of gardening in my younger days and now I just make my pottery and do some of the work on the six raised beds with vegetables that I grow year-round. I have been working on propagating an older peach tree that I believe to be close to 90 or 100 years old that is totally resistant to peach leaf curl. The garden has a four-tier water fountain, which makes beautiful sounds as people stroll through the walkways and visit my pottery showrooms.


This garden’s estimated size is 1/4 acre.
