Host Michael
Weishan and the WGBH Victory Garden television crew visited Stoneyard.com
for first-hand advice on stonewall and retaining wall construction. The
taped segment was part of a show that helped teach viewers about stone
- its uses as an ornamental, functional and inspirational part of the
garden.
The use of
stone is part of a stunning redesign of the Victory Garden using new hardscape
materials from Stoneyard.com. The Victory Garden team has completed the
installation of a stone compass as the new centerpiece connecting its
grass paths. Retaining walls are being added around the herb gardens,
along with granite steps and a granite seat to complete the hardscape
renovations. The plans can be viewed at www.victorygarden.org
under the Victory Gardens link.
Stoneyard.com's
craftsmanship was featured during the show when the specially created
compass was shown and planted with thyme as a lesson on "softening stone."
On a Victory Garden side trip to Stoneyard.com, Mr. Weishan discussed
sources of stone and stonewall construction with David Croteau, co-owner
of Stoneyard.com.
"We educate
viewers where stone comes from and the different types that are available
for building stonewalls and retaining walls." said David Croteau, "Then
we show examples built from our extensive inventory. We are proud that
our stone is part of the new Victory Garden design."
