For nearly two decades Jacqui’s gardens have been occupying her available small spaces be it a patio in Windsor, Ontario, high rise balcony off the Danforth in Toronto, a back yard in Dublin, Ireland, or the roof of her narrow boat in London, England.
In 2015, Jacqui completed her Level one City & Guilds Horticulture with Organic Lea, in Chingford London.
