SECCHIA GARDEN LECTURE VIRTUAL SERIES Gardens have a unique restorative power in helping us to find peace during uncertain times. The COVID-19 pandemic has brought this important function of garden spaces into renewed focus. Gardens also play a critical ecological role in supporting local wildlife by promoting biodiversity, and providing opportunities for growing delicious and nutritious food. If you choose to get your hands dirty, garden design can provide a rich opportunity for creative expression. By building and nurturing thoughtful home garden spaces, you can experience the joy of a thriving garden throughout the changing seasons. Join us from the comfort of your own home this spring through Zoom for our first ever Secchia Garden Lecture Virtual Series, featuring Susan Morrison and Bill Cullina as they highlight ways to breathe new life into your home gardens this year.

“I’ve had so many clients tell me their gardens have been their refuge during this crazy year, and that is certainly true for me. Now that many of us have discovered how much peace and tranquility our own gardens can bring us, my hope going forward is that we won’t lose that connection, even as our lives return to normal.”—Susan Morrison
