The Garden Conservancy is celebrating its 25th anniversary with a beautifully illustrated book: Outstanding American Gardens: A Celebration: 25 Years of the Garden Conservancy. Edited by Page Dickey, the book contains nearly 200 stunning photographs by Marion Brenner. Page’s talk will touch on her extensive work with the Garden Conservancy as a board member and co-founder of the Open Days program, and will highlight a selection of the outstanding public and private gardens the Garden Conservancy has helped save since its founding in 1989. This evening will kick off Blithewold’s Field Trip series to various gardens illustrated in the book. The lecture will be followed by a book signing, as well as wine and refreshments on the terrace.
