Class Session # 5

We got to bring our laptops to class today........ spent the morning doing Internet searches on various topics and learning how to discern gardening fact from gardening myth.  Interesting..... very interesting.  
Lesson learned........   don't be so sure that what you've learned over the years about various gardening principles and practices is legit (aka - scientifically tested/proven)...... chances are, some or all of it may be a home remedy passed down from great, great grandma, or worse yet, a deceitful marketing ploy by a company looking to sell more product. 

After a sunny lunchtime break we reconvened for a presentation on composting.   Lively, lots of Q&A, and I came away with a few new good tips (I'll share them with you later in a Key Learnings posting).  

With all required activities accomplished we were released early......... 5 down, 7 more to go.
