Laura Raney

Laura has  many talents and adventures behind her for her few short years. This will be Laura's fifth year working at Eden.  She started out in the fall of 2004, then the next year,quickly took charge of many areas and learned about plants in a blink of an eye. She has spent the better part of the winter in Bston area living with her Aunt and  working and getting her fill of the city.  I can vouch for her Spanish teaching skills and Sienna and Louisa my daughters thinks she's "the best". I would have to agree with them. I have the highest admiration for Laura for who she is and her many talents.
We welcome her back this year and look forward to her many stories and have nicknamed her "social director"
Her favorite activity at EDEN is musical plants, where we move the plants around like furniture. Laura's artistic ability will be seen in the chalk boards. Just a hint, you can bribe her with anything sweet.

Judy Daniel      
Judy is no stranger to hard work and owning your own business. She and her husband continue to  own a restaurant and gift shop in Henniker, New Hampshire for 25 years. Judy first started working at Eden one July fourth when she read the sign saying, "Please be patient, we have no help either." She jumped right in and has been a regular for the past 9 years. Judy is an avid gardener ( thus she stays a faithful staff member ) and equally a great cook. Her other interests include knitting, walking, biking, skiing, kayaking, weaving and rug hooking. Her son, Ryan, a sprots enthusiast (like his mom) lives in Colorado, her daughter, Kelsey lives and works in Boston area and her husband Kevin works and works at their restaurant. Judy loves the Vineyard beaches and the ability to bike anywhere. she is an invaluable staff person and a dear friend.  At Eden, she particularly enjoys sampling the delicious fruits.  

Evangeline Costa

Evangeline owns her own landscape and design business, called Evangeline and Company. She is included as part of our staff, because we want her to be a part of our staff. Her crew helps us with plant deliveries, heavy lifting and general moral support. Our businesses and our personalities are very compatable.

Vivienne Perry

Vivienne has been a part of Eden for close to 10 years now. She has done every job, worked every department and been the perfectionist in  each of these areas. Born in England, Vivienne has had many lives and has lived in many countries, perhaps Greece being her favorite. Now she is the master of the Container Gardening area at Eden. She has many customers who will only work with her, as her sense of color and style is very unique and incredibly beautiful. Viveinne keeps us organized and we love her for it - or maybe we just plain old love her.

Sienna Sorphea Dice

Sienna is the youngest member of the staff. She started as a five month old on Dee's back and has"grown up in the business."She likes to spend time planting with Vivienne, eating with Judy, playing with Laura and giggling with Alaina - and mostly being with her Mom.
