Claude has a B.Sc. in Agriculture, with a major in horticulture. LeDoux’s love of gardening bloomed early, as a youngster growing up on a 27-acre property. He worked as a landscape consultant for many commercial and private projects. Claude recently retired from 27 years as the Parks Department Horticultural Manager for the City of New Westminster. He gives courses and lectures at Van Dusen Botanic Gardens in Vancouver; he is a Judge at various Flower Shows and shares his knowledge and passion for the garden with many Horticultural and Garden clubs.
