Thomas Jefferson Garden - Heirloom Garden Plants

You too can grow a garden with the same plants that Jefferson tended in his garden at Monticello.

Of gardening he said, “No occupation is so delightful to me as the culture of the earth and no culture comparable to that of the garden.” Letter to Charles Willson Peale, August 20, 1811.
