Photographer’s Note

I visited this lovely garden by walking from the centre of Stockholm. You could take a bus or a tram but I prefer walking. The previous post was taken from the bridge and shore I walked here.

Rosendal's Garden is an open garden, with the main purpose of presenting biodynamic (organic) garden cultivation to the general public.

The biodynamic principles include a constant focus on quality. Besides environmental considerations in all gardening work, all produce used in food processing is selected with utmost care. The garden crops are served at tables, and leftovers go back to the compost heap, providing first-rate soil for next year’s growth. Visitors can actually feel the continuity of a connected whole.

Since 1984, a self-supporting foundation manages the garden, without grants or subsidies. The proceeds from café, bakery, and shops directly support garden maintenance.
