The Garden Conservancy
Open Garden Days, July2, 2016 from 10:00- 4:00
My garden will be featured on Saturday, July 2nd along with many other wonderful gardens in our area. I have been editing the garden for the past two years and there are many changes.
Totem Farm
Totem Farm – Don & Henrietta Statham
581 Rathbun Hill Rd, East Meredith, NY
On four acres of sloping land, the garden at Totem Farm has expanded outward from the old farmhouse and ice house, towards the fields of wild flowers that surround the place on three sides. A big leaf room, a moon garden, a very young lilac walk, a very old apple orchard, a recently planted plum orchard, a pond walk, a patterned meadow walk and some living willow tunnels for the chickens, are defined by fences, stone walls and hedges, and connected by paths and stone stairs.
I will be showing my Oil Paintings in the evening of the same day from 5:00- 7:00 in Delhi, NY. Please see information below:

Hi Kackie, Nice to hear from you always. Look forward to your visiting the garden.
Best Don
Is this the first time your garden has been on an open garden day? I’m having my first open day in early August. If you have any pointers, please let me know. In the meantime, I hope all goes well and that the garden is looking its very best.
Hi Pat, it’s the 2nd garden conservancy and my gardens been on a local garden tour several times. It’s important to have a Good parking area- in my case mowed area of a field. Nice to have a table with cold drink- water or tea. I have help taking tickets so I can answer questions about plants. Good luck. Would love to see your garden and all the garden sculpture sometime. Best, Don
I would love to see your garden however I live in Florida. I have a facebook friend who is a wonderful painter who may be interested in viewing it. His name is Kurt Hanson if you go on facebook and ask to friend him, or look for his web site…he might be interested in painting at your garden…ps he is a very fine gardener too.
