Peacefield is located in Quincy,
Massachusetts, hometown of two US
Presidents, John Adams and his son John
Quincy Adams. It is a historic home and
now part of the Adams National Historic
Park.
It piqued my interest to visit this place
after having learned about this particular
garden from a colleague.
It opened at 9am yesterday 6/13/20 and
the garden is open to the public gratis
but not the house.
It was a beautiful day, blue skies with
high thin clouds, refreshing cool breeze,
a perfect day to be out and about. Yes,
weβre still in the midst of this ever
present pandemic so I took the
necessary precautions- mask on,
physically distancing and sanitizer
handy, which I do even before it went
vogueπ. There were very few people
though.
I had a relaxing day, peaceful, just what I
needed after a hectic work week. The
garden is small yet charming and really
enjoyed it. Lots of birds singing.
