Denise Buchanan, grew up on the island of Jamaica and had a difficult childhood She remembers always enjoying spending time in the backyard amongst the fruit trees and plants and being mindful of how I felt in the garden. She worked hard and received a scholarship to pursue a master\u2019s degree in landscape architecture in Canada, and afterwards worked for a leading Architecture and Engineering firm. Her interest in human behavior led her to pursue a Masters and PhD in Psychology and her unique inter-disciplinary approach to design was soon featured on Home and Garden Television. After many requests for her design services, she decided to start my own business, Sacred Garden Designs, Inc.\u00a0For over 15 years\u00a0she has pursued a career committed to transforming the world in which we live through lecturers and working with individuals and communities on minimizing the impact of drought, climate change, food insecurity, growing populations and deforestation in urban landscapes while maximizing the creation of more useful and livable urban environments centered around tree planting, sustainable land management and community economic viability especially in the under-served areas of society.\u00a0
