Mrs Wallace is well-known for her constant work and dedication growing and selling plants of all kinds to raise money for Otago Hospice.
She estimates she has generated more than 30,000 plants in recycled pots and containers for this purpose over the years.
Her nominator said Jill raised about $7000 a year.
"I just love growing plants, and hospice plays a big part in communities," Mrs Wallace said.
"I can take one plant, split and grow it into plenty of others and they bring joy to those who buy them, and help hospice provide the amazing care they give to others.
"I think it’s wonderful the Leader and Silver Fern Farms keep an eye out to reward people just for doing what they can to help out in the community."
