Roger Swain, host of the PBS television series The Victory Garden, said North Hill Garden “is of such quality and diversity that it rivals any in Europe. But there is nothing derivative about North Hill; it is American gardening at its best." The New York Times said that this Vermont garden “blends the deep pleasures of a New England homestead — meat and fresh vegetables are raised on the land — with the passion of two inveterate plant collectors who filled their south-facing slope with tens of thousands of trees, shrubs, ground covers and bulbs, many of which were not supposed to survive a Vermont winter.” Every effort is made to ship all books and other items within 24 hours. Clean recycled packing material will be used when possible. The Book Shed has a been a member of the Vermont Antiquarian Bookseller's Association since 1997.
