Nancy Duffy is the owner of Muddy Boots Garden Design and has been designing gardens in WNC for nearly 20 years. She is a trained horticulturalist and enjoys creating gardens that suit each person for whom she designs. Inspired by Piet Oudolf, Nancy designed her first meadow garden in 2011 and never looked back.

She shares her personal four-acre garden, Acorn Hill, with her husband Dennis, their German Shepherd Dog Gidget and cats Lily and Margo.
