Then & Now with Marta McDowell

The hunt for garden history started with a discovery. It was a "visiting gardens" list, circa 1928, found in the archives of the Morris County Park Commission. Miss Caroline Foster drew up the list for the Garden Club of Morristown. Eighty years later Marta McDowell (and friends) tracked down those properties and a few more for good measure. What did they look like then? Have they survived? Come on this entertaining, informative hunt for the treasures of our gardening past.
