About the event
After undertaking a Stress Inventory of her life, Debbie turned to her love of gardening to
help ‘melt the stress away.’ She began seeking out gardens and green spaces whenever
and wherever she could, chronicling each adventure, which eventually inspired her
program Saved by the Garden: Tales of a Gardener’s Journey
Victory Gardens is a travel through time discovering the history and inspirations of these
gardens. Virtually visiting today's breathtaking gardens, their garden architecture, plans,
plantings, some unique plant characteristics, and early used techniques and tips that you
can use in your own garden today. Also highlighted are the health and wellness benefits that these gardens bring to a community. These benefits are reminders as to why garden
clubs and green spaces are essential to the well being of all communities.
