A virtual museum of Gourd Art from Gourd Artists from around the world. A place where the many artforms come together, woodcarving, chip carving, woodburning, paints and pencil, pine needle coiling and staining, and the one common bond between all these forms and all the artists represented here is Gourds. We all love gourds and have found them to be the most expressive form of art. This is just a sampling of the Gourd Artists work, each individuals page will have a link to more of their work where additional sites are available.

The Artists

Our Journey

The Gourd Reserve was established in 1990 by Timothy Mark Moyers and his then-wife, Carmella. As passionate members of the American and Ohio Gourd Societies, they dedicated themselves to cultivating a diverse collection of gourd seeds, sharing their bounty with enthusiasts across the country. After their divorce, Carmella, with her new husband Dan, continued the mission, transforming The Gourd Reserve into a global hub for gourd cultivation and crafting. From crossbreeding experiments to international collaborations, our site celebrates the rich history and artistry of gourds. We invite you to explore our collection and join us in honoring Tim’s legacy.
