You’ll know you’ve arrived at our plant nursery after you’ve driven through Schenck’s Mill Covered Bridge over Chiques Creek, and farm fields give way to rows of well-groomed Japanese Pines . . . .

The refreshment and sensory delight of falling water is undeniable, whether it be a trickle into a stone basin or a stream-fed, swim-in waterfall. Growing up as he did in the jungles of a tropical island in the Philippines where jungle streams and waterfalls were his playground, James Hanselman takes great joy in bringing the experience of falling water into the lives of his clients. Maybe you need this refreshment in your daily lives, not only in the heat of summer, but all year long!

“Aaah, summer – that long anticipated stretch of lazy, lingering days, free of responsibility and rife with possibility. It’s a time to hunt for insects, master handstands, practice swimming strokes, conquer trees, explore nooks and crannies, and make new friends.”
~ Darell Hammond (American actor)

“O for a summer noon, when light and breeze
Sport on the grass, like ripples o’er a lake
Alive with freshness! when the full round Sun,
With the Creator’s smile upon his face,
Walks like a prince of glory through the path
Of Heaven!—Thou vast, and ever-glorious sky,
Mantling the earth with thy majestic robe…”
~Robert Montgomery, “Beautiful Influences” (American merchant, banker, and statesman; 1734 – 1806)
