ABOUT THE AUTHOR
When Jan Goldfield took up the task of building a pond in her backyard in 1987, it was strictly as a hobby. In 2006, she was named the premier water gardener in the southern region of the United States.
Jan has built waterscapes for Bienville House Hotel, The French Quarter Inn, St. Louis Cathedral, City Park and the New Orleans Museum of Art. During NOMA's 1995 Monet exhibit, Goldfield even transformed the interior of Lakeside Shopping Center into a local Giverny by installing a lush garden complete with arched bridges.
Now Jan brings her expertise to you in her illustrated eBook: A Practical Guide to Building and Maintaining Your Pond.
