Bob’s New Adventure Begins
FINALLY! Bob Hyland announces his “escape” from Hardiness Zone 5b to Portland, Oregon, Zone 8b (3 whole zones!), and the launch of his expanded garden design and consulting business. Loomis Creek, for eight years a beloved destination nursery in Hudson, New York, is about to be repurposed and reinvented. Call him “happy wanderer”, “peripatetic”, “bi-coastal Bob” (all good!) — he’s energized by his brand new adventure and revamped business. Read More…
Find out where Bob will speak, lead a workshop, or attend a horticultural event.

APPARENTLY 7 IS OUR LUCKY NUMBER at Loomis Creek Nursery, where our 7th year in business has brought the debut of our new website, an appearance on the Martha show (the video is below this story on the homepage), and now a story in The New York Times! Yes, Anne Raver’s piece on Loomis appeared at the end of June; if you missed “Getting Creative With Containers,” you can read it online.
Some of you have asked how we landed this story. Honestly, it was not serendipity, but a year in the making. Anne stopped by in June 2008 on her way to visit and interview Margaret Roach.
