Gateway in Rutgers Gardens
Here’s how some of the plots at Rutgers Gardens looked in early May. I expect in one month those piles of dirt will be showing flowers and/or vegetables.
I like how they didn’t just put up a gate; this doorway with a sun is a welcoming feature.

Nice entrance to the garden. I would guess the fence is to keep the wildlife from eating the garden. Thasnk for visiting my windows. The first two images were taken last July and there were not many people out. Both are shops on the first floor. I don’t know if people live upstairs.

I thought it was wood. I’ll have to get up close to it sometime in the next month or two and report back.
Very attractive gate, and perfect for a garden!
I look forward to see the flower beds in full bloom, Leora! 🙂

“keep the wildlife from eating the garden” – oh, I’m sure. We have a lot of garden lovers in our area! Small ones and big ones (deer).
