What's happening . . .

The Herb Farm gardens will be on the Sargent House Garden Tour June 20th. The garden beds are new.

The oldest, The Old Kitchen Garden was started in 2005 as a small plot.









It has grown to include the all of the available space outside the old kitchen door. Two grape arbors have been built and 4 plants put in. This year we have a good amount of growth with small bunches of grapes appearing.







The Back Forty (feet) were planted last year in potatoes and a few other vegetable. The Victory Garden - Upper & Lower were new in 2008 and were planted with tomatoes, squash and pumpkins. Our retaining wall had to be replaced. The work was completed in the spring of 2008. All the plants that had been there were either given away. transplanted or composted. Now there is an Upper Great Wall of Annisquam Garden which has lavender, clary sage and other medicinal herbs. And . . . The Lower Great Wall of Annisquam Garden is being prepared to receive the rhubarb plants that need to be transplanted and some asparagus.

The Greenhouse has been a nursery this spring.
