Her Christmas wreaths are the stuff of legends. Jodie said, “I’ve never done a workshop before! I just let it go and flow and it comes together.”
Boy, does it come together! She has been awarded the highest honors time and time again at the Bascomb’s Mountains in Bloom. I’m personally going to be doing a vase and I am all thumbs. (Hugh is the floral arranger in our family.)
Chattooga Gardens, based in Cashiers, North Carolina was founded by Jodie and Jeff Zahner in 1996. Their goal was to provide plants that would thrive in our mountain climate, including many native plants, as well as the knowledge gardeners need to be successful in these special conditions.
