"Cultivating Place"
​
​​Jewellgarden's mission is to explore and celebrate a deeper connection to the world around us through the cultivation of our gardens.
Jennifer Jewell, the founder of Jewellgarden and Cultivating Place, achieves this mission through her writing, photographs, exhibits about and advocacy for gardens & natural history and through her weekly public radio program and podcast Cultivating Place: Conversations on Natural History and the Human Impulse to Garden, on gardens as integral to our natural and cultural literacy.
