The Fischer’s Waseca garden
The Star Tribune published an article December 30, 2008, about Marian and Larry Fischer’s garden on a farm north of Waseca. The article, written by Kim Palmer with photos by Joel Koyama, is titled, “Marian Fischer is a garden category unto herself.”
Back in the 80s my mother, Mary Ellen, took me out to see the Fischer’s garden. Like Marian said in the article, many of the plantings were in rows in the early years but the gardens were already spectacular. From the photos accompanying the article I can tell the gardens are even more expansive and spectacular now. Congratulations to the Fischers for their extraordinary labor of love.
