Join us each Thursday in June for a series of conversations and presentations with local luminaries. Each week we will feature a different expert — a gardener, a filmmaker, a poet, and a musician — and invite them to show their work and share stories of their craft in the North Barn.
June 4: Ecological Resilience Talk and Pop-up Plant Sale with local gardener and nursery owner Helen O’Donnell.
Helen O’Donnell is a professional gardener, designer, and grower at the Bunker Farm in Dummerston, Vermont, along with her husband, sister, and brother-in-law. She manages Bunker Farm Plants, a specialty plant nursery, as part of the farm operation, offering unusual annuals and perennials, natives and non-natives, primarily grown from seed. Helen believes that design, maintenance, and growing are symbiotic practices and that a garden is an ever-changing, interspecies collaboration. She loves plants — especially the unkempt wild ones — and is a painter and printmaker who spends time each winter making art.
