Belfast Garden Club’s Noon Program

Belfast Garden Club Noon Program Features Portland Press-Herald’s Tom Atwell
 

On Tuesday, November 19 at noon, Tom Atwell, the well-known garden columnist from the Portland Press-Herald, will discuss how time and “design by shovel” have shaped his home landscape. The talk will be held in the Abbott Room of Belfast Free Library, sponsored by the Belfast Garden Club, and is free and open to the public. 

Tom Atwell began his garden in Cape Elizabeth in 1975. Nearly half a century later, his garden has evolved with the times–for as any good gardener knows, the garden should reflect the gardener’s growing knowledge and expertise.

Tom Atwell, a lifelong Mainer, writes a popular weekly gardening column for the Portland Press Herald and Maine Sunday Telegram, https://www.pressherald.com/author/tom-atwell/. Tom was on the editorial staff of the Portland Press-Herald for 37 years until his recent retirement. He was raised in Farmington and holds a BA in journalism from the University of Maine.
