On March 18th '06 the doors on the bookstore
closed to allow us to concentrate full time on our growing list of perennial
garden design and maintenance clients and to make time available for teaching more gardening
classes and other speaking engagements.
Saying a simple "thank you" to the many wonderful people I've met as customers at the bookstore over the years seems a bit lame, but - Thank you.
You will be missed.
Over the years I not only had the privledge
of surrounding myself with some great books on a topic that I've been
passionate about for over 25 years, but experienced the daily pleasure of
meeting people from all corners of the gardening world - from young children excited about their first tomato
plant to botanists who traveled the world collecting and appreciating plants,
and all levels of interest in-between.
Garden designers, stone wall craftsmen, professional nursery growers,
beginner gardeners, landscape builders, herbies, native plant enthusiasts,
hosta collectors, perennial gardeners, tree lovers, environmentalists, entomologists,
architects, historians, flower crafters, horticultural therapists, garden writers, photographers,
artists, and more.
Two things everyone had in common - a
passion for plants and a love of good books. What a pleasure it was
to go to "work" each day! I had a great time
sharing gardening stories, tips, plant passions, and discovering great new books.
My gardening obsession is taking me in a
different direction now, but I suspect that I'll find myself missing the personal contact with you, so who knows what the future will bring!
Keep in Touch!
