Jack Rosfeld joins us on October 8 to talk about growing flowers, trees and shrubs that are native to Arizona—many of which attract and support beneficial pollinators. Discover recommendations for their placement, planting and care.Jack is a Certified Master Gardener through Maricopa County Cooperative Extension. His gardening passions include plumerias, adeniums, all edible plants and fruit trees—including a wide variety of tropical fruits growing in his back yard. His front yard is a certified National Wildlife Habitat & Native Pollinator Garden.

A US Army Veteran, Jack has lived in the Phoenix area for more than 25 years. He is a graduate of the Arizona Culinary Institute and is a private chef after many years working in the restaurant industry. His love of cooking was his path to gardening where he incorporates the highest quality, freshest ingredients.
