| PresNet and TTOR Co-Sponsor a Preservation Workshop
|
| 
NELDHA's PresNet and The Trustees of Reservations (TTOR) are happy to announce a Preservation Workshop at the TTOR's Naumkeag site in Stockbridge, Massachusetts. Naumkeag, a National Historic Landmark, is undergoing a $2 million restoration of its iconic gardens. The program is on June 7, 2013 beginning at 9:30 a.m.
This program is not a garden tour but rather presents a rare opportunity to study and observe a preservation project in situ. The program includes an on-site discussion of the restoration of the garden’s infrastructure, hardscape and plant material and explores current preservation topics.
