Charles Price and Glenn Withey have been curators at the Dunn Gardens since September of 1997. In addition to their responsibilities at the garden, they have owned their own business, Withey Price Landscape & Design, LLC, since 1985. Between tending to the garden and their own business, they are kept very busy! At the garden the two of them both oversee work done by the two gardeners, work with the Garden Conservation Committee on implementing new garden projects, and are out weeding/grooming/watering/planting themselves when not attending to paper work.
