“Explore our plants, pick up a gift, get something new to spruce up the house, admire our flowers or watch as we franticly try and get through a busy day of orders. We are an ever-changing environment of creativity.
We are the husband and wife team of Bonnie Garrison and Chris Condon working harmoniously together for over 15 years. And we love it!
Chris also has a busy sculpture studio where he continues to work on commissions and shows. My work is often a whimsical take on observations of flora and fauna that inspire me on a daily basis. Whether playful narratives or curious abstractions, I hope to ignite the viewers interest and make them more aware of their natural surroundings leading to a deeper appreciation and care to tend and love the land we walk everyday.” Bonnie
