Renovating a Garden

We're running regular posts with inspiration and gardening tips from our advisory board throughout the year. (Check out Frances Palmer's post about planting dahlias and Sarah Ryhan's post about her container cutting garden.) 


Garden Design Advisory Board member and interior designer Claudia Juestel visits fabric and home furnishings designer Sandra Jordan’s 1916 New-England-style farmhouse in Healdsburg, California and writes about how she was inspired by Jordan's gardens.

 

My friend and fellow interior designer Matthew MacCaul Turner and I travelled north from San Francisco to attend a garden party Sandra Jordan hosted for VIDA (Volunteers for Inter-American Development Assistance), and we arrived fashionably early to leisurely stroll through her wonderful gardens.
