Digging Deeper: An Artist's Garden: A Living Tapestry

Sat, Jun 25, 2022
4:00 PM- 6:00 PM

In this intimate one-hour workshop, designer Maude Odgers will walk us through her renowned, deeply personal garden, revealing how her lifelong work as an artist has influenced her unique approach to garden design. A passionate plant collector with an eye for the unusual, Maude is drawn to plants, shrubs, and trees with interesting foliage and texture-elements which weave strong and subtle forms together creating living tapestries. Using her own evolving landscape as illustration, she'll discuss her method of garden composition and highlight the subtle details that enhance a garden's structure, theme, and impact, both visually and spiritually.   For more than 40 years Maude has worked and reworked this land that she and her husband cleared and planted, and upon which they built their home. Her gardens consist of many meandering mixed borders (influenced by English gardens), several woodland gardens, an herb garden, a garden with a pond, an orchard, and a small unique raised-bed vegetable garden. Her garden has been featured in numerous garden journals.

Admittance to this garden’s Open Day on June 25 is included with a purchase of the corresponding Digging Deeper ticket.
