Paraphrasing the scriptures : " Where much is given (in intellect and education )..
"much is expected " (in teaching and training others).
Perhaps that is why I try to wait until others have made comments in the gardening forum, but "greeneyes" has pretty much covered other FReeper questions.
I find that I learn as much here by participating and getting my skills updated; I learn something new every time I lurk here, but I learn even more by participating.
That is why I try to be helpful, .. but I take even more enjoyment by watching others being or becoming more successful gardeners,
and getting involved in producing good and healthy food for their families.
As iron sharpens iron so one person sharpens another.
This is what I find from this thread too. I’ve forgotten too much. I love being reminded, updating and learning new facts and methods. I wish I had the land and energy to try everything related to garden food production. I’ll never be able to use everything I learn here and in other gardening classes but I want to try :)
Hubby just informed me there’s a nearby gardening convention of some sort next weekend! And my calender was free. ~was~
