It feels more like DC here than western Massachusetts these days.<\/p>\n<p>The Garden is loving it. I am astounded that after only 2 real years, it looks so mature and robust.

You&#8217;re helping to create a living poem. Philosophically, the garden is a co-creation; it expresses something of the character of the place itself, something that any human intervening there must respect.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; from the
