The Authentic Garden: Cultivating a Sense of Place


What would an authentic American garden look like? How would we garden if we weren’t still borrowing from European or Eastern traditions? These are questions horticulturist Claire Sawyers addresses in her book, The Authentic Garden. Claire outlines the principles she believes can lead us to create gardens that are grounded in the history and landscape of our place – gardens that connect to and fit within our lives.
