What Does Jack McKinnon,
The Garden Coach Do?

During a typical garden coaching session you will spend an hour and one half to two hours with Jack walking through your garden. You will discuss your needs, skills, time, and budget. Then, Jack will lead you through your garden identifying plants, making suggestions, and providing information about watering, fertilizing, and pruning. Take notes or record the session because you won't want to forget any of the information in the session. Learn how to be your own landscape designer with Jack's knowledge and guidance.

Need To Identify Plants That Are In Your Garden?

Jack will identify those mystery plants for you. Each identification will include common name, latin name (genus & species), sun/shade requirements, watering requirements, fertilizing, and care requirements by email. Click here to contact Jack with your specifics...
