Daniel Walth grew up in the Heartland of North Dakota. He comes from a long line of peasant farmers so gardening is in his blood. Early on in his education a teacher influenced him greatly to pursue fine art. He trained as a painter and received his BFA at The Cleveland
Institute of Art. When he moved to Washington, DC he found ALG to be a perfect place for his two children. Now as a teacher at ALG he can share both his passions – Art and Gardening – with children in a cooperative play environment.
