Victoria Gardens
From time to time, I have a photo assignment that is so colorful; there are beautiful photos to be taken everywhere I point my camera. Last year I produced a Google virtual tour and still photos for Victoria Gardens in Rosendale New York https://www.victoriagardens.biz/ Victoria Gardens has a nursery, garden center, and gift shop. According to their website Victoria Gardens has a landscaping division that “has been designing, installing, and maintaining gardens in Ulster county for over 30 years." This was another fun photo assignment.
The gift shop offers house plants, jewelry, garden ornaments, wind chimes, pottery, and cards.
The garden center has a wide variety of plants, soils, seeds, arbors, trellises, outdoor rugs and garden tools.
Seeing these flowers, I am so glad that Spring has arrived. You can take the Google tour here: https://maps.app.goo.gl/EAWaQRDzweTXCvYB9

Last December I was assigned to photograph three adjacent businesses owned by the same owner, Alan Brinto, in Westerly, Rhode Island: Grey Sail Brewery/ https://greysailbrewing.com/ , South Country Distillers https: //southcountydistillers.com/, and Grey Sail Taproom. https://greysailbrewing.com/
The Christmas decorations were up to celebrate the season.
Spirits, Cold beer, and Grey Sail swag is available for purchase in the showroom.
I visited on a Monday when all three businesses were closed. I made still images and produced a Google virtual tour for each one. According to their website the brewery building built in 1920 was once a macaroni factory, a US Post Office, and an auto parts store, before being renovated in 2011 into a brewery.
South Country Distillers started in 2018 offers a variety of spirits: A 80 proof Agave, 80 proof Rums, 60 proof Limoncello, 80 proof Vodka, 86 proof gin, and 40 proof Expresso Martini.
According to their website a 300 gallon hybrid copper still allows the distillery "to create any spirit we can dream up".
Food is available at the Taproom with indoor and outdoor seating Memorial Day through Columbus Day and indoor seating with events and occasional live music throughout the rest of the year..
The Brewery tour is here: Grey Sail Brewing
The Distillery tour is here:: South County Virtual Tour
The Tap Room tour ids here: Grey Sail Tap Room
There is also an on-line store for beer, spirits, apparel, and Grey Sail swag: https://grey-sail-brewing-company-llc.square.site/
Grey Sail Tap Room is ta great place to relax all year long, The summer months must be amazingly busy. Westerly, Rhode Island is minutes away from the beautiful Rhode Island beaches.
