About Me
Profile Type: Individual
Number of Employees: 1
I have a passion for the written word and all things botanical. Growing up on a farm, I lost myself in books, writing poetry and traipsing the woods as I revelled in the natural world around me. My country upbringing and interest in plants paved the way for a career in Ornamental Horticulture, writing about plants and, most recently, Herbology and how plants can heal naturally on all levels: physically, emotionally and spiritually.
I have a diploma in Plant Science from the Nova Scotia Agricultural College, where I graduated with honours in 1996, with major in Ornamental Horticulture. I have twenty years' experience as a gardener and an herbologist in my personal life, and I have led online groups with a focus on herbs, gardening and growing indoor plants. I have given seminars on the safety of healing with plants, both wild and cultivated.
My work experience with plants, both in the woods, in gardens and with interior plantscaping, spans twenty years as well, as I was employed in Nurseries (MacArthur's Nurseries in Moncton, NB; Western Plains Flora in Tullamarine, Vic, Australia), Garden Centres (Canadian Tire, Dieppe, NB, Wombat Gully Plants, Hoppers, Vic, Australia), an organic herb farm (Four Seasons Herb Farm, Maitland, NS), and in a blueberry and strawberry farm in Maple Leaf, Ontario.
I have been self-employed as a Garden Designer and Landscaper since my graduation from College, specializing in Herb Gardens and Potagers.
My love of plants and creating an optimum environment for them, which in turn creates healthy spaces for us all to live in, is what shines through in my writing.
