East Bank Wetlands
|
An expression of landscape art creating a variety of wetland environments
|
The eastern watershed drains through the ravine in front of the farmhouse, passing under the driveway through a culvert before it enters Garrard Creek. After a decade of digging, remediation, replanting and landscaping, these wetlands have been transformed into a series of ponds, cascading down from the stream. The following pages show the process creating this waterscape.
