The Trustees of Reservations has been gifted with remarkable cultural resources that continue to connect people to place on some of Massachusetts’ most iconic properties. The organization’s current public gardens initiative has invested in the reawakening of its landmark gardens and landscape. Recently the organization completed a four-year restoration of Fletcher Steele and Mabel Choate’s garden masterpiece at Naumkeag, overlooking the Berkshire hills, and proved that its National Landmark gardens continue to draw members and visitors to its never-ending seasonal beauty.
Cindy Brockway, Program Director for Cultural Resources at The Trustees, will share the story of Naumkeag’s remarkable transformation and the discoveries learned in polishing one of the Commonwealth’s more remarkable masterpieces. This February 6 talk will be the February meeting of The Garden Club of the Back Bay and will begin at 10 am at The College Club of Boston, 44 Commonwealth Avenue.
