Hi Jack, I discovered your channel after watching Laura from Garden Answer doing Mackinac Island tours with you in years past. The gardens and plants were just amazing, and you are so, so talented. It's on my bucket list to visit that beautiful island next year.

Hi, Jack! I was on the island yesterday with the pleasure of sharing it with my sister-in-law’s first time to the island. We had limited time but just before catching the ferry, I said we must walk by Jack’s grandma’s house (like I know you)😁. Your grandmother happened to come out on her front porch and I gently shouted over to her a hello and told her how I am one of her grandson’s biggest fans and that he totally brightened my winter this past year with his amazing videos of gardens. She was so gracious and said, “thank you, I will tell him”🥰. You truly do provide some wonderful garden therapy for the world these days-thank you!

Always love your designs at Mackinac Island. You and Laura from Garden Answer inspired me to tackle landscaping around the house. I started getting serious last spring and I did a lot by myself. We live in a Cobblestone House that was built in 1866 but there's no flowers around it. When I first visited Mackinac Island in 2011 I was in awe with all the varieties of flowers planted in the Island the colours of the are so rich and vibrant. That's when I said to myself I want our yard to look like the garden in Mackinac Island. Lol! One of your video I just watch recently showing the cottages and you show the layering of those big lime stone were I get the idea of applying the same design for the other side of our house. Thanks for the inspiration.

It is phenomenal Jack, we are all out here rooting for your company (and all your crew, your talented assistant , and most certainly your family)! It is such a crazy and exciting time in your life! You are probably too busy to watch this but there is a program on your local PBS channel being broadcast about the ‘new age of nature’ (not the actual title)in the world where humanity, in some places, is reawakening to the realities that indigenous peoples have always known, we must learn to work with nature to sustain out environments world wide. I believe you are someone who has understood this since childhood. I remember the video where you took a tour through a wood you frequented with your father. Try to catch it if you can or purchase the dvd, it’s WONDERFUL! Thank you for taking such care with our beautiful Mackinaw Island. I am almost 70 years old now, I LOVE where I live in New England, but I hope to see that lovely island one more time in my life....
