GORGEOUS SCULPTURE/JAPANESE GARDEN TOUR // THRIFT HAUL // SUMMER IN VERMONT

[@relativelyrefined]

There's nothing quite like summer in Vermont. I love to get outside in my gardens. In this video I also got to tour a beautiful garden near where I live. I also share a garden themed thrift haul. What was your favorite find?

[@marymogckmishmashmary]

Love the tour of the seven Springs Farm, what a beautiful relaxing place❣️

[@relativelyrefined]

Thanks so much! It is truly beautiful and serene!

[@lianeabeyta4515]

The Seven Spring Farm is amazing. What a tranquil treat to be able to visit and walk through such beauty. You mentioned his wife passed...I hope he is not alone in that big beautiful home. The two sheep are my favorite, of all the interesting sculptures. The vista views of the garden, hills and sky is pure magic! That he planted such a serene garden for all of us to enjoy, will be his legacy. Thank you Sir!

[@relativelyrefined]

The farm and gardens are truly a gift to the public. The gentleman who owns them is extremely civic minded as well and donates generously to lots of local arts organizations. We are truly blessed!

[@caridadrodriguez8623]

Those gardens are absolutely beautiful!!

[@relativelyrefined]

Thank you!

I felt so peaceful watching the 7 Springs Garden and Sculpture Park footage, thank you for sharing with us. Kathleen, your garden is so beautiful! Everything here in Texas is now struggling with the heat so it’s nice to see your gorgeous plants!

[@relativelyrefined]

Thank you, Lynne!!

[@arleneg1271]

Good to see you again Kathleen. My favorite find was a toss up between the tablecloth and the big pineapple for the shelf or mantle. I like the idea of a freebie pile ....one man's trash is another man's treasure.

[@relativelyrefined]

Gotta love a freebie pile! LOL

[@judithsharrar8706]

Loved the garden tours, your garden and especially the seven springs garden.

[@relativelyrefined]

Thanks so much, Judith! Hope all is well with you and yours! :)

[@patriciathompson1257]

LOVED this video so much. All of the garden themed items are beautiful, but nothing compares to your exquisite gardens and the spectacular garden tour. This was definitely one of my faves! ❤

[@relativelyrefined]

Thank you so much!

[@marybeth4002]

It's so good to see you, Kathleen. Your home gardens and landscape look lush and I'm sure lots of blooms have yet to come. Oh, what a perfect Vermont day it would be... the local market stand and then the tour of the Seven Springs Gardens. How beautiful and serene it is with the background of the mountains (Green Mountains?) and so much movement in the garden beds. Your thrifted finds 👍👍👍 especially the tiles and the leaf table from the free pile - jackpot!!

[@relativelyrefined]

Hello Marybeth! Yes - those are the Green Mountains in the background. My mom and I so enjoyed ourselves at the sculpture garden - it really was such a lovely day!

[@lauraflores5777]

Hi Kathleen! I've missed you. You're so lucky to be able to spend time with your mom in such beautiful gardens. My mother would love that but is no longer able to walk as much unfortunately. I'm very jealous of your artichoke figurines - I've been on the hunt for some for awhile. Hope you are enjoying your time off from school. Have a great rest of the summer!

[@relativelyrefined]

Thanks so much, Laura! Time with mom is a gift and I cherish every minute! Have a wonderful summer! :)

[@jeannet9592]

Your flowers are beautiful. I just love that pink dahlia. I agree about the importance of having a recipe.

[@relativelyrefined]

Thank you so much 😊

[@martivasiliades8407]

[@tammyr6669]

❤ GOOD TO VISIT WITH YOU TODAY.....I FEEL A BIT LIKE I HAVE BEEN ON A SHORT VACATION...GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY!!

[@relativelyrefined]

Thank you so much Donna! Blessings to you and yours!

[@chriswells4400]

Hi Kathleen! The Seven Springs gardens are just gorgeous. Can you imagine getting up every morning early and walking through the gardens with your coffee? And your vegetable garden is coming along beautifully. Your lettuce and Swiss chard are so lush. My mom always made creamed Swiss chard on toast for breakfast. So good! Loved your thrift finds!

[@relativelyrefined]

Thanks so much, Chris! I would LOVE to have coffee in that garden every morning! Such a lovely way to start the day!!

[@johnmelissaziech6207]

Your garden looks great! Now is the time to cut that allium flower. If you don't, you most likely will not have a bloom next year. I harvest them, save them in the garage, and then use them for fall decorations. If you want it for the sculptural effect now, cut the stem and then stick it back into the soil. This way, the flower won't drain the bulb of energy it will need for next year.

[@relativelyrefined]

Thanks for the tip! I will do that right now!

[@justineclark5431]

Hi Kathleen, can’t wait to visit Seven Springs…just beautiful! I live fairly close to Manchester and come often, would you mind sharing the name of your local thrift shop? Thanks!

[@relativelyrefined]

You absolutely must visit seven springs!! The thrift store is the Manchester health services thrift store on route 7A in Manchester.
