Whaley House Garden Restoration Project
By Jessica McGeeWhat did Mrs. Whaley's garden look like? What plants did she grow and why? How can we best present the historic aspects of these gardens to our visitors today? The newly-formed Whaley House Garden Committee is answering these and many other related questions.
Having determined the period of significance for the gardens as the 1850's through the 1880's, and set major goals for the space, the project is currently in the research and evaluation phase. Can you help us? We have always found our members to be a tremendous resource in any historical data collection effort in the past. Anyone with information regarding the Whaley House gardens, such as: old photographs, vintage postcards, etc., please call the SOHO office at 619-297-9327 or send us an email at sohosandiego@aol.com
