The Medieval Mary Garden at Wisdom House was given in memory of Mary McCaffrey Kenel as the gift of the Kenel& Skeffington families.
The garden contains flowers named for Mary of Nazareth. They are arranged in crescent shapes to evoke the crescent moon, upon which Mary is often depicted in art.
The plants are native to Northwest Connecticut. The architectural designer of the garden was Barbara Putnam of Litchfield.
