This week, we speak with Pat Brodowski, head gardener at Jefferson's Monticello. Pat shares her knowledge about how and why Jefferson grew the plants he did, the experimental nature of the household gardens and what is being done to maintain the gardens during our time. It's a fascinating conversation which provides some real insight on Jefferson the gardener.
