Peter Donegan Garden Design & Landscaping
The recording (below) for France Tv station Weo with Adelaide Bollart, was just as I began phase 2, of the completion of the Irish WW1 Peace Garden at Chateau de Péronne, Historial de la Grande Guerre, France.
Though an official inauguration is to be announced, the Irish Jarden de la Paix garden has was opened Tuesday 8th November 2018, in time for the Armistice Centenary.
This is the only video interview I have done on the Irish WW1 Garden of Peace | Jardin de la Paix, at the Historial de la Grande Guerre, better known as Chateau de Peronne since France 3 TV covered it as the first of the peace garden series to start.
My thanks to Lee Connelly of Garden7 for making this happen.

Peter was speaking with Gerry about the design and build of the garden of peace at Chateau de Peronne, better known to some as the Historial de la Grande Guerre, home to the largest World War Museum in Europe.
Peter was one of 9 international garden designers selected, in this case to represent Ireland, by a French jury to design and realise a garden in the moat of the Chateau some 30′ below street level. The WW1 memorial garden on the theme of peace will be completed and launch this October 2018.
