Excerpt from July 31, 2009 News Release by Donna Fryman

 

Three other quilt block gardens are located in Bracken County where many agritourism destinations can be found.  The Lavender Hills of Kentucky Farm on Conrad Ridge Road in the southeastern part of Bracken County created a quilt block garden.  The mother-daughter team of Judy Brothers and Denise Scaringi chose the quilt pattern called Fair and Square.  They planted their eight foot square with salvia an impatiens.  While there, visit their gift shop featuring many lavender items.

 

Travel to the river town of Augusta.  There you will find a quilt block garden at the Parkview Inn Restaurant.  Phil and Jenny Rice planted their Grandmother’s Flower Garden design with 208 impatiens plants.  This garden has brought a lot of attention to this area of town.  While visiting the garden at 203 West Second Street in Augusta, stop in for a delicious meal or tasty dessert and coffee.

 

While in Bracken County also visit Hillside Orchard and Country Store owned and operated by Ron and Jodi Nadicksbernd.  Their farm is located off the AA Highway in Northern Bracken County.  You can’t miss the signs.  Ron and Jodi chose the quilt block pattern called Churn Dash.  They planted their eight foot square with marigold, vinca, petunias, and dusty miller.  While touring plan to visit their country store for gifts of food, crafts or enjoy an ice cream sundae or soda and then take a walk through their orchard.
