Jack (1839-1912) was a Canadian writer, horticulturist, and Canada's first professional female garden writer. Along with her husband, she ran a fruit farm at Chateauguay, Quebec. In addition to raising 10 children, she managed an extensive garden of flowers, fruits, and vegetables for profit and experimentation. The garden was written up in American publications and brought her to the attention of North American horticulturists. Jack wrote and published inspirational short stories and poems, articles of social interest, and practical, wide-ranging horticultural articles, but she was best known for the gardening articles she wrote for the Montreal newspapers and major horticultural and agricultural magazines of the day. Her popular book The Canadian Garden: A Pocket Help for the Amateur (1903) remained the only Canadian gardening manual available until the the end of World War I.
