Garden History and Design

Garden History and Design

The Garden History & Design Committee uses photography and research, the study of good design practices, educational and lecture programs, and internships to develop an appreciation for America’s gardens.  

The committee works closely with the Smithsonian Institution’s Archives of American Gardens to document cultivated gardens throughout the country. Thus far, the Village Garden Club of Sewickley has submitted four gardens to these archives, the most recent in 2023.
