Bedrock Gardens
Woodland paths, spiral beds, specimen plants, hardscape, and found-object art reward curiosity rather than a single grand axis.
Artwork inspired by Harriet Randall Lumis
A former farm becomes an idiosyncratic garden of rooms and sculpture. Woodland paths, spiral beds, specimen plants, hardscape, and found-object art reward curiosity rather than a single grand axis. Rather than relying on one headline feature, the experience gains depth from the contrast among spiral garden, sculpture rooms, and woodland paths.
Follow the garden map loosely, then return to one room to study plant texture against constructed form. The garden is seasonal, paths vary in surface, and special events can change entry logistics. Visitors who include woodland paths gain a fuller sense of place than those who stop after seeing only spiral garden.
