"The Nest" is meant to create a place of rest in the Learning Garden. Viewers approaching from the garden side enter a semi-private space and are offered a view of the garden and the hill to the west. Continuing through the central arch, viewers enter a more private space that opens on the adjoining apple trees and field where animals pasture. "The Nest" is made from reclaimed branches that provide habitat for small birds and, like the Learning Garden, create a useful man-made structure from natural materials.
