Stuck in Vermont- Summersweet Gardens

Tea, flowers and friends await you at Summersweet Garden Nursery in East Hardwick, formerly known as Perennial Pleasures Nursery. Rachel Kane started Perennial Pleasures in 1980 when she was still a college student at the University of Vermont. She championed rare heirloom flowers and ran the nursery out of her family’s 1840s brick home. In the mid-1980s, Rachel’s British mother, Judith Kane, started serving English cream teas to visitors in the gardens. Produced by Seven Days.
