Historic Hubbell Garden Project

The Hubbell Garden at the Bradley-Hubbell House was designed by Shelia Wertheimer, an historic landscape designer.  She designed the garden after studying the land, researching old photos and speaking with Pat Hubbell whose parents, Helen Osborne Hubbell and Franklin Hubbell, planted the original garden in the 1930s.

In the spring of 2001, Sal Gilbertie donated, and members of the Easton Garden Club planted, plants which were similar to those in the original garden. The fence was built by Easton Scout Troop #66 using the design of the fence around the property as shown in a 1917 BHC photograph.

The restoration committee was originally led by club members Abby LePage and Janet Hoyt. 

The Hubbell garden continues to be an active project for the club. Members meet every Tuesday at 9:30AM beginning in May. There are always plants in bloom. It’s a great place to share plant knowledge and learn techniques of gardening such as deadheading, staking, weed identification and propagation.
