Description
The George Pegg Botanical Garden in Alberta is a very interesting garden. George Pegg was a pioneer botanist/taxonomist of west central Alberta. His family developed a homestead, which George continued to farm after the death of his parents. George became very interested in birds and plants, and made major contributions to the field of Botany with his many first-time-in Alberta identifications of plant species, massive pressed plant collection, large library of botanical books, plant findings which led to the theory of 'glacial refugia' in the Rockies, and development of a unique Garden.
The family moved to the area in 1913. The Pegg family had 8 children so having a traditional outhouse just would not do! The botanical garden is open to the public and tries to maintain the many varieties of plant life George defined and nutured on the property as well as growing seed plants. The garden has preserved the many dwellings the family built on the property. Some of those are very interesting and intriguing like this 3 seater solution to busy mornings!
