So basically this is a re-post from Studio G's blog. I do love this blog because they post so many beautiful gardens! The Thomas Jefferson historic gardens are so beautiful and well organized and cared for, I thought it was re-post worthy.
So then I started wondering about other historic gardens in America and decided to post some of the links I found:
1. George Washington's Mount Vernon: here is a quote from the website for people who enjoy a bit of history too: "George Washington built and arranged the Upper Garden in 1763. In 1775, he expanded and redesigned much of his estate – including the Upper Garden."
2. Michelle Obama's vegetable garden: This is such a great way to spread knowledge to adults and kids about where their food comes from, and I think she sets a great example for what schools could do in health class. In elementary school, I vaguely remember having a garden that we got to help build and it was very exciting! But most of my knowledge comes from helping my mom every summer.
These were the only two I found, but I only did a quick search. Do you know of any others?
ps.
I'm having issues with the links breaking, so below is the list of links, respectively:
1. http://www.studiogblog.com/
2. http://www.monticello.org/
