Outdoor living: The Orchard Farm

This very special farm garden, located on a five-acre site, takes its design sensibility from the architectural vernacular of the farm buildings that surround it.

Design elements
Designed as a series of outdoor rooms connected by rambling paths, the garden is connected yet secluded from the main house.

Arbors shade the space while a bubbling fountain made from a found millstone provides a cool sensation and recycled wood from an aged barn lends comfort and authenticity.

The Summer Kitchen houses all the necessities for outdoor living including a grill, sink, ice maker and ample storage space.

A paved ramp leads up to an extensive vegetable garden, replete with hot houses, potting shed, compost bins, and seat-height garden beds.


Just imagine all the garden parties you could have in this beautiful farm...
