I find these creative lay back videos very therapeutic Little treasure Island and all you cool people keep it that way so beautifully! Love the chill team work vibe of beauty and unity!
Awesome video Jack! Seems you are the man and you “owe” everybody one!!! Lol. More videos like this please. So enjoyable seeing how everything works there. A beautiful place that I would absolutely love to visit one day! ☀️🌲🌳🌿🌱🌼🌸🌺🌻🌾☀️
You seem to be blessed Jack, plenty of hard work you get to live and work in two of the most beautiful places on the planet and you have a beautiful family. Keep up the good work love your videos.
This was so awesome to watch with a morning cup of coffee. This video was the best to see your day of work sometime we say it takes a village to help out Sweet people!!
Are you kidding Jack...that was a spectacular time! I will definitely put this place on my bucket list. I'm an avid gardener but I'm not sure if I want Jessica's job or Dray's job more than gardening. Loved this video. Well put together and awesome people for sure. Thank you so very much. Wouldn't mind another tropical video either.
Jack, you made A LOT of calls! The Island seems to have a spirited, upbeat atmosphere there. Such a place of beauty and labor intensive people. Thank you for your dedication and talents for all to appreciate and enjoy. I hope to run into you if I get to the Island again some day. The behind the scenes tour was eye-opening and fun! God Bless You All. (I've come to the conclusion that I must find an island to live on where biking and walking are the modes of transportation ---- this is how I might keep some weight down and stay healthy. LOL!)
It is so stunning to be reminded of how much incredible talent and work goes into making Mackinac island so beautiful. I truly appreciate all of the beauty that you bring to us and I appreciate all of the people who work to make it so. Thank you, Jack, for sharing this. My husband and I love Mackinac! Peace and blessings to you and everyone on the island in this brand new year!
OMG!! That is how life is meant to be lived. No noisy loud cars or rudely loud neighbor cranking their loud awful music or children yelling there head off when they don't get things their way. That island is a piece of heaven!!! Community working as a team. Bicycle way around for your great health. And my lord all that Fresh Air that you can actually smell the fresh flowers.
Love to come visit to see for myself the beautiful homes and gardens. You're going to 'owe' quite a few people ;) Thanks for this unique look at what part of your day looks like. Nice to meet some of the people from there as well.
That was GREAT Jack!! I have missed visiting my favorite beaches here in Seacoast NH for many months so it was wonderful to see the water!HOWEVER, I DID make it to Long Sands Beach (near the Nubble)in Maine on my birthday in December-had it pretty much to myself-it lifted my spirits. As did this video, meeting some of those critical people who make the Island run! Thanks for the respite from the January doldrums and the bike ride. It may be my namesake month in a way, but it has NEVER been my favorite month! God Bless and stay well, your crews, your family, and yourself! Jan A.
Hello Jack from Pittsburgh... Thanks for some sunshine ☀️ this afternoon... it’s 12 degrees today. 🥶🥶🥶🥶 I love the island... #1 fan from Pittsburgh Gene
LOVE seeing this tour of the island. Gives such a good idea of what is there other than gorgeous gardens and the hotel. Loved seeing the 'Main' Street. Thanks. Do it again. ;)
That must be Jacks way of making the other person feel valuable and important! I am sure everyone likes to work for him. I might have to start using that phrase!🤔😂
Fabulous video Jack. I got my first taste of Mackinac Is.when the movie Somewhere In Time came out - many years ago and knew I wanted to visit there someday. I’m 79 now and realize it’s unlikely I will ever make it so I am thrilled that today we have access to videos like this one. Thank you.
Yes. Mackinac was such a neat place to visit! And your videos bring it all back. I do know it takes a lot of work to keep the island beautiful so thanks for all the good work you do!
Loved this video. Sitting here at 27degrees looking at snow. This video is therapy during this long winter nights. the care those horses receive warms my heart.
Wow! I wanta work and live there! Amazing healthy people there! What a life! I bet I'd even like the quieter Winters. Thank you so much for this. One of the best yet!❤
Thank you for sharing that beautiful facet of Mackinac island life…. Behind the scenes so to speak as it looks a bit bare looking at the amazingly beautiful properties and see absolutely not a soul in view.
Coffee in hand , Jack!! Great video - greetings from northern Florida ☀️ Favorite line....”who am I kidding, I shovel a lot of sh$$” - hilarious 🤣 You owe everyone 👍😊.....I find these videos so entertaining and educational seeing how everything gets to and fro from the island... I live on an island as well, but we are not as isolated as you guys, awesome 😎
Hi Jack! What an amazing filming job by the experts. So fun to see you and the team doing their best! Love Mackinac Island, so charming. Much happiness in 2021 for all!!!
Really great video and I especially enjoyed seeing the Old Freight Crew, Sacre Bleu and that segment ... fun to watch all that goes on behind the scenes!
This video was so creatively produced! I’m a native Michigander as well as frequent tourist of the island. This video was was such a cool display of the intricate workings on the island from the people, to the horses! I loved seeing the different people interviewed. Everyone looked genuinely happy with their jobs. I can’t wait to go back next summer with my son! What a magnificent place!!
Beautiful video. It's nice to see all the work that happens to make such a beautiful place come to life. You sure "owe" a bunch of people. That's just teamwork.
Wow, that was fun! Whew, what I take for granted in getting a landscape installed in my neck of the woods! Makes the beautiful landscapes you work on all the more amazing when we see what all is involved in making it happen! Thanks for giving us a taste of your day :-)
Really enjoyed this video! Its insightful, quaint, and very inspirational. Makes me more curious of the island. Lol. ...would like to see ur florida set up!
You make it all look easy Jack. Like most thinks that seem/appear simple, it takes a LOT of hard work to get to that point. 😊This was delightful -thanks EVERYONE!!
That was a lot of fun. Just visited Mackinac yesterday for the first time. So when can you come to Dunedin, FL and make my home sparkle with colorful native flowers?
Hey Jack! Great video!!! One can only dream of a paradise like Mackinac Island!! Boy Jack after listening to your many phone calls......you owe a lot of people!!! LOL!!! Have a great day and maybe someday I will see you in Naples! :)
That was amazing, Jack! We visit Mackinaw every summer so a lot of that was familiar and made me smile. I really enjoyed the behind- the-scenes clips and meeting the great people! So, all you do is stand around and make phone calls??? 😉🤗 I also spend a week in Naples every year. I'm hoping to be able to meet you sometime! You had requested suggestions on what to plant in an open spot at your Grandmother 's place. Did you plant the dogwood which I recommended?? Just checking! Lol! 😅 Keep these wonderful videos coming!! They really brighten up these dreary winter days. ⛄ ❄
Beautiful ! I’ve worked at numerous nursery/greenhouses over the years. My first job at 13 yrs old was a nursery and I was there for four seasons. I absolutely love it But nothing has compared to Mackinac ! Outstanding ! Thank you for providing content for my dreams ! Now more than ever I hope to visit one day 💖
Mackinac Island is so Awesome....It is just like history frozen in time....My grandmother lived in Grand Rapids and took me in 1979 to the island when I was in the 9th grade and lived in Kansas City, MO. I have never forgotten it...The Grand Hotel is GRAND!!
This video showed up in my suggestions and I’m glad it did. I planned a one day visit to Mackinac Island 4th of July weekend this summer and I can’t wait!! Everyone seems so nice... 🤞🏾they are!
What cell phone service is available on the island? Also, how do the keep the streets clean with the horses? Beautiful flowers and plants on the island. I live in NC and this would be the ideal place for the outer banks of NC. Keep up the hard work you make everything Beautiful! Rebekah Johnson in NC.
WOW! Lots of hard work behind the scene to make everything looks Super! It is so Pretty by the Works of your Hands! Great Job.....I am just amazed at all the bikes with big wheels...what is up with that? Did ya know that Laura had her Baby Girl? LoVE you and your wisdom on all the details of Garden Slender! Ya need a company in North Carolina too! ~~~~~~~ Cheers!
Great video! Thanks for giving credit where credit is due. I miss my days of landscaping and couldn't have done it without my hard working crew. We could of used some horses to help out in a few places though. Lol
Hi Jack, I have a nice half acre garden but I’m in a very populated neighborhood. We have a lot of mature oak trees with high canopies with a perimeter mostly in part to full shade. I really want to create a closed in feeing where I don’t see all of my neighbors and a street beyond my fence. What could I plant that will get at least 12 feet tall (but I have no problem with taller) in those part to full shade areas to create a dense privacy wall? Evergreen would be ideal, but I’ll do deciduous in some spots for variety. You seem to have a lot of experience with shade.
Loved this! I swear if I was 20 years younger I'd come work for you on the island in a heartbeat Jack! ❤ Grand Garden show is on my bucket list. 👍
This was really enjoyable. Thank you for sharing Jack. Great chuckle with the barn manager's comments!
I find these creative lay back videos very therapeutic Little treasure Island and all you cool people keep it that way so beautifully! Love the chill team work vibe of beauty and unity!

Thanks, Jack for this video and the different perspective of the island. My take from this - you have to be fit to work and live in the island 😀

I'm glad there aren't more hills! was that a secret garden entrance on the left side of the screen at 16:00?
You are so talented as a multi tasker !
Really enjoyed the video. I’d love to visit Mackinaw Island someday.
