We’re reaching the middle of the summer here in Connecticut. Although many of our favorite summer activities aren’t feasible this year, there are lots of ways to get outside.

Connecticut has plenty of public gardens to explore. This hour, we talk with New England gardeners about places to explore here in our home state, and ways to make your backyard an oasis. 

How is your backyard looking this summer? Are you working on your victory garden? What questions do you have about making the most of your backyard landscape? 

We want to hear from you.

GUESTS:


Jana Milbocker, garden designer and author of The Garden Tourist's New England: A Guide to 140 Outstanding Gardens and Nurseries


Bill Noble - garden designer and author of Spirit of Place: The Making of a New England Garden
