Myers Gardens

Wayne’s gardens are a wonderland of gorgeous plantings, unique hardscaping, and interesting historical features. Six acres of rolling lawn and perennial beds contain more than 550 different varieties nestled between fieldstone walls and outbuildings. Features include a covered bridge, a working water wheel on a post-and-beam-constructed feed mill, a blacksmith shop, and a glass sponge fossil rock enclosed in a unique display case. Other unusual features include a thirty-foot-diameter stone sundial and a potting-shed garden. Wayne also constructs sculptures, found throughout the gardens, from discarded farm machinery parts.
