Cross the covered bridge in Tunbridge village, follow the road as it climbs the mountain and turns to dirt, and you’ll arrive at Spring Road Nursery: our home and hillside farm in the mountains of Vermont. What began as an old pasture has become a living library of rare and unusual plants, a terracotta studio, and a place for imagining and making useful objects that carry the traditions of the garden forward.
Our relationship with the earth begins with plants. We grow many from seed and propagate others here on the farm, learning from them as they move through the greenhouse and into the garden. That same attention extends to the terracotta we build by hand and to the objects we make with Vermont craftspeople, whose knowledge of wood, iron, glass, and other materials expands what is possible here.
We believe a garden is never quite finished. It is a place of curiosity, beauty, work, surprise, and constant change. A way of paying attention to the seasons and to the living world around us. Everything we do at Spring Road grows from that belief: what we care for has a way of caring for us in return.
For us, it’s all a way of coming back to earth.
