ROBERT PICKERING, SR BOOKS
IN THE PRESS
I recognize so many of the locations, plants, paths, etc. The Arb is like a sanctuary to me. Holy ground. Having the books will make it possible to go to the Arb even when I’m not able to go. I feel blessed to live so close to this wonderful celebration of nature. All the best as you move forward with the printing and selling. I’ll want my copies autographed! Let me know when they are available for purchase.

I am enjoying walking through your Garden Memories. The photos of the wonderfully landscaped flower gardens and walks are beautiful and nicely captioned. The Book is a great guide to the Arboretum and would make an entertaining coffee table book.

"It's a real treat when someone who enjoys nature takes the time to publish a guide for others to enjoy and use to enhance their experience. Thanks for sharing and hopefully for others, they will add The Minnesota Landscape Arboretum to their bucket list." Bravo. Mike Whitney
