Biblical Garden

Waterbury, CT

Joseph Faryniarz, Coordinator

Joe originally learned about our Biblical Garden in Vermont
from a newspaper article.
He and his team went to visit the Biblical Garden at St. John the Divine
in New York City!
Then he and Michael Schwartz started work on their own plan!

In 2010 Joe Farinyarz and his team began work, much detailed, hard work
like the paving work by Michael above!

By the fall of 2010 the plantings began to bear fruit!

Yes, our biblical garden is a reality on campus!
The planting beds are complete and the biblical animals are already in place.

I have plaques for the 12 tribes of Israel like the plaque below, that will be installed soon.

The paver walkway is also installed along with the dedication plaque.
The individual plant labels will be going to the engraver soon.

Michael Schwartz is sitting on the tire.
His brother Paul Schwartz is above him with the cap.
Alexander Byer-Alcorace is leaning on the front tire above, and working on the globe below.

George Gentile is the person sandblasting the sculpture wearing the moon suit.

The Garden in its more developed, springtime state!

When you are in Connecticut be sure to stop in for an inspiring and refreshing visit!
