“I have found, through years of practice, that people garden in order to make something grow; to interact with nature, to share, to find sanctuary, to heal, to honor the earth, to leave a mark. Through gardening, we feel whole as we make our personal work of art upon our land.”

~ Julie Moir Messervey (Contemporary author, landscape architect, and Toronto “Music Garden” designer, in collaboration with Yo-Yo Ma)
