Whether new or old, big or small, a garden changes with every day, week, season, and year. This ever-changing nature makes gardens endlessly challenging and infinitely rewarding. In this illustrated lecture Rick Darke presents insights and lessons he’s learned from tending the same acre-and-a-half home garden in Landenberg, Pennsylvania, for more than 25 years.
