George's Garden

This is in the "Upper Garden" at Mount Vernon. Now this is the way to

garden--try it all, and have a large staff to manage it. Around this garden

are the shoemaker's shop, the smokehouse, and a special fire-house where the

heat from the fireplace is directed to the floor of the greenhouse. This

made it possible for GW to grow tropical plants.
