Tucker has been the sole owner and operator of Jensfarm Maples in Middle Tennessee since 2001. Growing three hundred different varieties on the property, Jensfarm has become widely known as a highly reliable source of Japanese Maples in the Southeast region of the United States. Tucker has over 20 years of self-taught horticulture and gardening, and she continues to thrive while seeking to both educate and learn from other growers.
