Name of Garden:
Cornerstone Gardens
History and Description:
"Cornerstone Gardens, located in Sonoma, California have been called the most innovative gardens in America. There are 20 different gardens (each designed by a world-famous landscape architect), a Café, several shops, galleries and spacious event gardens."
Cornerstone Festival of Gardens is an ever-changing series of walk-through gardens, showcasing new and innovative designs from the world's finest landscape architects and designers.
The first such gallery-style gardens in the United States, the nine-acre Cornerstone Festival of Gardens has been envisioned as an inspiration and resource for people interested in gardens, garden design and art.
Inspired by the International Garden Festival at Chaumont-sur-Loire in France, Cornerstone Festival of Gardens aims to create a cultural and creative haven, celebrating the connection between art, architecture and nature.
The gardens contribute to the art, philosophy and future of garden design; they focus on themes and ideas, establishing or uncovering new directions in garden design and art. Continually in a state of evolution, some garden installations will be in place for a season, while others will remain for several seasons.
