From the Field: Member Rose Riley Cares for Historic Garden

September 11, 2018

Master Gardener and CT Hort Member Rose Riley is the current official caretaker of the Webb House Colonial Revival garden in Old Wethersfield. An article about her long-term association with the garden appeared in the Wethersfield edition of Courant Community on July 3rd. In the article, Reporter Joan Hunt observed that as Rose guided visitors along the CT Historic Gardens tour, it soon became apparent that this garden is Rose’s labor of love.
