Jenifer Taggart has been Head Gardener at Ballintubbert Gardens and House since 2015.
From the begin this has been a journey with the owners as they restore, renovate and innovate to bring the gardens and house back to life. In 2020 Ballintubbert started the two-year journey to become Ireland’s first organically certified Ornamental Garden, subsequently achieved in May 2022. She passionately believes that gardening organically is the ‘easy way to garden’ – “more than just the non-use of chemicals, but instead creating a closed system, working with existing resources and environment so that the plants, nature and you all thrive together. Where you can let your imagination run wild as conventional barriers and restrictions disappear.”
