east Pennsylvania but likes to call Boston, Mass, home (she lived there for 15 years). She always had an interest in design and a desire to garden she said, even as a child. Her mother gave her her own garden when she was young and she learned by doing. She took courses at Arnold Arboretum, which is owned by Harvard University and her first job was as an assistant estate gardener in Beverly Cove, Mass.
She then moved on to a job as estate gardener at the Tuckerman Estate at Pride’s Crossing and from there was hired by the Staten Island Botanical Garden as its curator of horticulture.
The SIB Garden encompasses 13 acres and while there she added a 19th century Victorian perennial garden, a white garden, a rose garden, a pond garden (which covered one and a half acres), a herb garden and a fragrance garden. “I’m a nut for detail,” she said. “Everything has its place.”
After living in a place where there are almost seven million people in a 13 mile stretch, Rappahannock, she has found, has a much slower pace of life. “Everyone here is very friendly. There if someone beeps a horn you ignore it. Here if someone beeps a horn they’re waving to you.” Yevoushok said she thought it would be easier to adjust here than it was adjusting to New York but she does feel a little nostalgic — not for New York but for Boston, Mass., which she thinks of as home.
She loves the scenery here and the Blue Ridge Mountains, she said, has made her home — where else — in Boston.
