Gardening is one of my favorite things to do. So, it was with great pleasure that I had the chance to speak with Maurren Heffernan. Not only is Maureen the author of the new book Native Plants for Your Maine Garden, she is executive director of the non-profit Coastal Maine Botanical Garden in Boothbay, Maine. No moss grows under this woman's feet. She has a second book being published in 2010 called Fairy Houses of Maine. I can't wait to see that book. I've always wanted to build a fairy house in my garden. Maybe, with this book, I'll be inspired enough to get one built. If you've been to the Coastal Maine Botanical Gardens, you'll know what I'm talking about. Above are some photos that my husband and I took when we visited Coastal Maine Botanical Gardens in the spring of 2009. To hear her interview got to http://www.949whom.com/sectional.asp?id=36319
