Old Stone House
In addition to his work for private clients, Samuel Lewis also works as Director of Gardens at the Old Stone House. The Old Stone House is a 1930s reconstruction of the Vechte-Cortelyou House which was originally built in 1699. Located within JJ Byrne Playground and Washington Park, the Old Stone House and surrounding gardens serve thousands of visitors annually. The gardens feature many varieties of native, edible plants which attract pollinators and birds. Volunteers and students do most of the planting and care-taking, in exchange for learning, health benefits, harvest and community connection. For more information or to become a garden volunteer,
