Clark Gardens
Stow, MA
About
Clark Gardens has been in development for over 30 years. It started serendipitously with a chance encounter at a parent teacher school event, held during our first winter in Stow, with a local landscape architect, Yurich Fenigsen-Zieba. When he stated he was a landscape architect, I explained to him my wish to have a waterfall built and the following summer he built a beautiful waterfall with large boulders previously removed from the foundation of our house. And thus began a collaboration which continues to this day. Over the 30 years, many garden "rooms" have been created culminating with the "woodland garden" which has been developing over the last three years and occupies the last section of the two acres of gardens and lawn available. There has never been a formal "plan" to the gardens. Identifying an area and then adding shrubs and plants I like, has been the only "plan". My philosophy has always been to identify what you like and then find a place for it.
This garden’s estimated size is 2 acres.
