It’s always a bittersweet moment when you lose longtime staff, so we’d like to publicly say goodbye to Meghan Fidler, our Nursery Manager for the last 5+ years, and her partner, Jeremy Schmidt, who headed up our Grounds and Research department for 15+ years. Jeremy has been responsible for all of our garden rock work over the last decade including our incredible crevice garden, while Meghan has overseen a period of dramatic growth in our production nursery.
Both are heading off for a new adventure at Bellingrath Gardens & Home in Mobile, Alabama, where they will work for another former PDNer, Todd Lasseigne. We wish them the best in their new phase of life. We are currently looking to fill our Nursery Manager position, so if you or someone you know has an interest, you can find out more here.


Oh no! This is a loss, they’ll be missed. What about the Bristle Briar?!?
Thanks and wishing the best for Meghan and Jeremy.
Sad to see them go but happy for future opportunities. Big shoes to fill for their replacements!
I have met and talked to both Jeremy and Meghan at open house days. I understand why you will miss them.
Mary
Jeremy wishing you much happiness! I still have a plant you gave me years ago! Blessings to you and Meghan.
I will miss you at open houses, Meghan! Good luck in your new position.
