"A Hope for Spring" Horticulture Manager Josh Steffen discovered signs of spring - emerging daffodil sprouts - beneath a protective layer of leaf litter in the Children's Garden today. What signs of spring are you seeing in your landscape? #wellfieldgardens #springiscoming
"Freedom" #winterwonderland #wellfieldgardens
We're utilizing a centuries-old Japanese technique of wood burning that preserves the wood called 焼杉板, or “yakisugi-ita”, often seen in the Western vernacular as Shou Sugi Ban. Using a torch, staff and volunteers burned the entire outside surface of these logs which will increase their durability, making them more resistant to weather, insect-damage, and rot-resistance over time compared to untreated wood. This is a very sustainable, cost-efficient process that uses no chemical or other harmful practices. The Island Garden is a gift from Don and Jurate Krabill and will be completed this fall! #japanesegarden #wellfieldgardens #traditionalbuilding #sustainablybuilt
