Maureen Haseley-Jones

Maureen Haseley-Jones presents her ‘Garden Earth’ lecture as a fundraiser for the South Lyme Chapel from 6.30 to 8 p.m. on Thursday, May 12, at the First Congregational Church of Old Lyme, Lyme Street in Sheffield Auditorium. She will teach how to create an organic garden without using harmful poisons.

Also known as The English Lady, Haseley-Jones is a sought after and highly respected lecturer, writer, and radio gardening expert heard monthly on WRCH Radio Lite 100.5 FM by thousands of dedicated fans throughout Connecticut.

In her naturally humorous and upbeat manner, The English Lady will teach how each of us can oxygenate our environment and develop a symbiotic relationship with the Earth. She will show not only how to create a beautiful garden that flourishes but more importantly how to maintain it organically and without the use of harmful poisons.

But even closer to her heart, The English Lady will discuss ways in which we can, through our garden’s living spirit, become inspired to reach and connect at a deeper level with the meaning and purpose of Mother Nature and her changing seasons.

The English Lady recognizes that at present, more than any other time in history, people need to make conscious choices about their health, lifestyle, and homes.  She says, “People need to know that even the smallest gesture of a garden has positive effects and rewards on the environment.”
