#RockSolidHistory from Van Vleck Gardens in Montclair, NJ again! This butterfly garden, illustrated in not only the plants but the stonework too, was made possible by a donation by the estate of Mark Landrum. He understood the importance of these delicate pollinators with local wildlife! I will need to go back in the spring to see the flowers blooming. You should too! #VanVleckGardens #MontclairNJhistory #GardenStatehistory #NJhistoryforkids #GetOutdoorsNJ

#RockSolidHistory from Van Vleck House & Gardens in Monclair, NJ! This once grand estate is lovingly cultivated with plantings like the Van Vleck family's as well as new inspirations. There is a fairy trail right now, and recent re-imaginings of scarecrows by local boy and girl scouts. Would use rocks (clay pots) to build yours or something else...? #VanVleckGardens #MontclairNJhistory #GardenStatehistory #NJhistoryforkids #GetOutdoorsNJ  Dear Readers, as the holiday season gets underway, please consider supporting small businesses and independent authors. I chose to publish independently after good advice from a book agent. My topic and focus were specific and not for a mass audience, but still worthy. "A Rock Solid History of Hawthorne, New Jersey" is a book that ignites the natural curiosity of children, teaching history in a fun way - through rocks - that can be seen and explored n person, if you so choose. It is available on Amazon (https://www.amazon.com/Rock-Solid-History-Hawthorne-Jersey/dp/0692097104) or at these local stores: ✅ The Curious Reader, Glen Rock, NJ ✅ Colour and Whim, Hawthorne, NJ ✅ Bookends, Ridgewood, NJ Thank you! ❤ #shoplocalNJ #NJindieauthor #NJindieauthors #NJindiebookstores #RockSolidHistory #stockingstufferNJ #Hawthornehistory #NJhistory #GardenStateGifts  |
