Thursday, November 14, 2:00 pm Eastern – Gardening, A Love Story: Creating Brush Hill, Online

by

Longtime Open Days Garden Host Barbara Paul Robinson will discuss her new book, Creating Brush Hill, the love story of Barbara and her husband, Charlie, and the garden they created together over five decades.

Narrated by Barbara, it is the story of how two people of quite different temperaments and skills worked to create a place of great beauty. Brush Hill covers over ten acres of gardens, all created and tended by Barbara, as well as several garden features built by Charlie. Each year visitors and tour groups from near and far are welcome. Barbara makes clear that while they were busy creating this magical garden, the garden was working its magic on them. Full of wonders and frustrations of the garden, this delightful tale will appeal to serious gardeners, want-to-be-gardeners, and non-gardeners alike. Their ongoing love story offers inspiration, encouragement, honest and funny tales of garden mistakes and the demanding work that a garden entails, along with the garden’s many joys.

$15 for General Admission A recording of this webinar will be sent to all registrants a few days after the event. We encourage you to register, even if you cannot attend the live webinar.
