Bird Haven Farm tells the story of Janet Mavec's transformation of a historic property in New Jersey into a vibrant and evolving garden paradise. The book chronicles her journey from city dweller to passionate gardener, detailing the challenges and triumphs of blending the old with the new, honoring the land's history (including its connection to Nancy Drew author/publisher Harriet Stratemeyer Adams), and creating a space for community, celebration, and connection with nature. It explores the thoughtful design principles implemented by landscape architect Fernando Caruncho, the contributions of other gardening experts, and Mavec's personal evolution as a gardener and designer. Ultimately, the book celebrates the beauty and bounty of the land, emphasizing the importance of stewardship, sustainability, and sharing the garden's gifts with others.
