Portland Gardening Examiner | Bio
Find out more about Jessica:

Jessica Loomis often discovers that she's wearing a big silly grin when her sleeves are rolled up and there's dirt under her finger nails. When not working to create her own backyard Eden, she's wandering around Portland, admiring the thousands of beautiful public and private gardens within the city. She believes that gardening is about more than aesthetics; it's a way to bring people peace, to build community, to feed the hungry, and to help sustain ecosystems. She also believes that it should be affordable, accessible, and fun from rooftops to balconies to back yards. Gardening is a way for her to express both her creative side, her love of nature, and her desire to help make the world more beautiful.
