Get To Know Hélène

I was an award-winning research scientist, inventor and professional engineer in the nuclear industry for over a decade. I left this career when I moved to a First Nation reserve, where I completely fell in love with food security. This is where I began designing my own indoor gardens and growing organic food indoors.

​

While living on reserve, I studied bio-intensive techniques used by market gardeners and began developing my approach based on stewarding healthy soil. I use no-till techniques, no pesticides or herbicides. My researcher skills are put to good use when selecting the right approach for my clients' gardens.  I teach complex concepts in simple ways so that gardening becomes enjoyable for all my clients, regardless of their level of knowledge and experience.
