Our garden is so tucked away we had to add an extra sign because people always miss it otherwise! |
Thanks to everyone who came through our patio on the Sheffield Garden Walk. We enjoyed meeting what felt like hundreds of visitors over the past two days from all over the country and beyond. Many people complimented us on the serene, oasis-like environment we've created in a quite small space. Some visitors even said it was their favorite garden they saw!

A closeup of our water feature |
Our corner water feature/fountain garnered a lot of attention. Many visitors took photos of our little stone fountain. While we can't claim credit for creating it, we enjoy the sound of the trickling brook and wish we could thank the prior owners for installing it. The upkeep is very minimal, merely requiring emptying the hose and storing the pump for winter. I think one reason people react to it so much is that it they think it is simple enough to accomplish themselves in their own backyard.
I
posted a while ago about the furnishings we selected including an all-weather sofa and chair, two ceramic
garden stools, and a dining table and four chairs. I'm glad to say they've all been holding up very well even though we keep them outdoors all winter (covered up.)
