Country Gardens

   Garden For A Working Farm cont.

A brick patio at the rear overlooks the fenced lower lawn and garden. Fence panels at the end of the vista allow views into the cherry orchard outside the garden. Old boxwoods and perennials atop a raised bed create color during the seasons. A small pool and fountain animate the garden with sound and sky reflection.

The upper garden is enclosed with hornbeam hedges and shrub borders above existing stone retaining walls. Brick walkways and a circular planting bed provide close viewing access. A centered bench extends views across both upper and lower gardens and beyond to the fields and woods across the valley (photos row 4)

A small patio used for BBQ and entertaining can be reached from the front service door as well as the kitchen at the rear (photos bottom row). A narrow passage next to the house connects the patio to the main terrace and the lower garden (photo top row right).
