Holborne estate more than an urban oasis
The home of John & Joanne Holborne will be part of Grimsby Garden Club’s July 16 garden tour By Sarah Williscraft NewsNow John and Joanne Holborne first set eyes on their prop-
erty in 1979 when it was mostly mud, asphalt and the remains of a grist mill from the late 1700s.
As the Holborne’s were touring the property, working their way through dead trees and
shrubs at the back of the house, they pulled some branches aside and saw a beautiful view of the
rushing Forty Mile Creek. “I looked at the guy showing us the place
and I said ‘Hey, Buddy, if that goes with it, I’m buying it,” said John.
