A significant element of this project was to create a vegetable and flower garden protected from deer and bears. We achieved this by enclosing it in a decorative trellis that incorporated a vermin proof mesh. We also created a pergola to lead visitors to the main entrance. The house is surrounded by woods so we needed to blend our plantings with the surroundings to make a naturalistic tradition from maintained to wild. We also designed a rustic bridge linking the garden to woodland hiking trails.
