John G. Fairey

For 30 years, Peckerwood Garden, in Hempstead, Texas, has been evolving under the expert care of John G. Fairey, whose fine arts background is evident in the garden's design. John is responsible for introducing a wide range of rare, native plants from Mexico to an American audience.

Our Mission

Peckerwood Garden is an outstanding repository of rare and unusual plants from the United States, Mexico, and Asia; and exhibits an unique collection of folk art from Mexico. Balancing artistic expression and scientific discovery, it fosters educational and scientific programs, and encourages greater knowledge and appreciation of horticulture.

The Peckerwood Garden Conservation Foundation was established to preserve existing collections; support continued plant explorations and trials; and develop, maintain and preserve the land and facilities of Peckerwood Garden.
