    About the Facilitator

    Jerry is an internationally renowned horticulturist and a pioneer of sustainability and organic best practice and comes from four generations of farmers and gardeners. Emigrating from England, he managed Sydney Botanic Gardens from 1992, then created ‘Bellis’, an affordable, sustainable house and garden in subtropical Brisbane in 2003. Growing 500 kinds of plant, the 300 sq metre food garden feeds the household and produces a surplus for trading. Also a Director of the Seed Savers Network, his seed bank combines with the nursery to provide a community gene bank, supplying community nurseries, farmers and collectors with a range of seed and plants not found in the trade.
