VPR Cafe: The Splendor of North Hill Garden

Sunday, September 1, 2013, 10:40 a.m.  North Hill Gardens in Readsboro is a seven acre landscape of color and serenity.  The garden was created over 40 years by Joe Eck and Wayne Winterrwood, and includes some 8,000 species.  Sally Pollak, who writes for the Savorvore Section of the Burlington Free Press, tells the story of Joe and Wayne and paints a picture of what you will find there.

North Hill is open to the public Friday and Saturday from 10:00 till 4:00 through the first week of October.  Admission is $12.00. 

The VPR Cafe is produced in collaboration with the Burlington Free Press, where you can read more and watch a video of the North Hill gardens.

The VPR Cafe is made possible by J.K. Adams, in Dorset, Vermont and at TheKitchenStoreOnline.com.

Franny was VPR's Director of Programming & Production.
Ric was a producer for Vermont Edition and host of the VPR Cafe.
