Gardening in place 2020
“A collage of my garden at the beach, ” D. Fairweather, gallerist/ interior designer/ OSU master gardener
The breeze blows, things get dew on them, things flower; the sounds, the smells…gardening helped.

March-15th – May 15th
Stay-at-home quarantine
“That’s me back there!. This plant is outrageous! I cut 9 artichokes today.” Christine Trexel, artist/ fellow gardener.
Comments to CT:
“Wow. I did not know the plants got that big. I have never grown them.”
Gardening and cooking became an excellent way to fight stress and attention fatigue.
In quarantine, many of us were more alone than we’ve ever been, experiencing, for the first time, prolonged solitude.
Looking back.
“The rhythms of the natural environment and the repetitive, soothing nature of many gardening tasks became a source of quietude and clarity. Thankful to have found solace in nature during the pandemic crisis,” D. Fairweather.
Our hours will remain limited until there is a convincing containment of the coronavirus.
