We are simply waiting to complete the stone work on your office & master bedroom first. If your priority is the garden then Gary should instruct the stone crew to focus on it. The actual planting of the plants will be done by Jasper Templeton & Nora Chapman who is an organic gardener. They are lined up and ready to do the planting once the walls are in place. I'll talk to Gary tomorrow about an exact date for completion. He has been scheduling all construction based on your priorities but he can't build everything at once.

The real key to any successful garden is "a gardener", someone who is serious and passionate about gardening. I'll also talk to Peter with our Island Grounds staff to see if he has any expertise. tage001.jpg> STEPHEN M.

From the information on his website, www.howardresh.com, his method is based on a hydroponic method which will require a greenhouse. Are you thinking that you would want a greenhouse on the island? If so, I was thinking that we could take a portion of the existing terraced garden and enclose it in a greenhouse. Thoughts? <image003.jpg> STEPHEN M.
