A Terraced Garden in Vermont

This terraced landscape in Vermont flows from a high perch on a contemporary home’s second-story viewing deck through a grassy play space with a fire pit terrace, past mown fields to a swimming pond with a small lake house and on through a wet meadow to a beaver pond beyond. Here at the side of the house, a bread oven sits conveniently outside a screened dining porch on a terrace of Goshen stone from nearby western Massachusetts. Photo by Susan Teare.
