Join us in celebrating a new chapter for our organization!

 

We are proud to announce Julie Christina as our new Executive Director. 

 

Julie’s passion for horticulture and nature began in her childhood in Ohio and has flourished ever since. She holds a degree in Horticulture from The Ohio State University and has gained valuable experience studying gardens abroad. With over 17 years of experience in esteemed public gardens, including Heritage Museums and Gardens and Blithewold Mansion, Gardens & Arboretum, she brings a wealth of knowledge to our organization.

 

Her expertise as a florist and estate gardener has enriched her understanding of comprehensive design, emphasizing natural and native plantings, ecological practices, and the beauty and biodiversity of our environment.

 

In her new role, Julie invites you to enjoy and learn from this beautiful space, while preserving and enhancing its natural essence. In honor of the Kinney Faella families, she looks forward to continuing the mission of the garden and fostering a deeper connection between our community and this remarkable property.
