centennial garden

The Centennial Garden began with the 100th anniversary of the College of Agriculture. The meditative space joins the Mann Agricultural Library with the President’s Garden. Architectural artifacts, pavers, and abandoned stones grace the courtyard and seating. Plantings for the garden space comprised a collaborative effort with the Cornell landscape architecture department. Visitors can find this gem of a spot behind Mann Library on the main campus path through the university.
