Belfast Garden Club Open Garden Day

Our gardens started in 2012 when we purchased our home and the adjacent building lot. By the end of the first summer we had a flower garden on Northport Ave and down Allyn Street. In 2013 we began establishing a vegetable garden, added fruit trees and shrubs and two  hugelkultur mounds.

In 2017, we engaged Lee Schneller to help us create a bird garden. Sally and Lee worked together on plant selection and we added a water feature, peony bed with tree, herbaceous and Itoh peonies. In 2021 a system of ledgedust paths and a meditation bench were added in addition to a wood-burning oven from granite cobble stones salvaged from Portland streets.
