Our Garden

In 2009 we took on a rural project of our own in a move to express a life long dream of a country garden. We have been transforming a 10 acre site on Salt Spring Island. Friends and family say we are working rather quickly, however, compared to urban sites this seems like a very long process. The magic has been in the transformation of the eye that beholds beauty. Contemplating the balancing and harmonizing principles within the magnitude of the coastal of B.C. landscape is humbling indeed, and yet through the process one's relationship and understanding of nature is refreshed.
