Members of

The American Hemerocallis Society

An American Daylily Society

We are Tom and Cyndi Cowland and our golden retriever Keileigh.
Golden Meadows has been an idea in the making for many years.
When we purchased the house and property here 35 years ago,
there were no gardens at all and no daylilies!

Tom is a former high school science teacher [Marshwood system for
nearly 34 years] and now works part time at a local pharmacy. Cyndi taught

Home Economics at Wells HighSchool before moving on to use her talents

as a professional seamstress. Her alterations business keeps her busy

all year but she finds time to conduct pre-Christmas holiday workshops (see workshop page).

Keileigh is our official greeter - with tail wagging, she will say hello,
looking for a pat on the head and then will head for a favorite spot in the
shade where she oversees her domain here at Golden Meadows.

Once the good weather arrives, you will find us in our gardens on a
daily basis from just after sunrise to (often) after sunset. Our (nearly)
two acres have been transformed into a variety of gardens that reflect
different types of light and soil-[wetness] conditions. Stop in for a visit

and take a walk through our gardens.
