Note from the Editor:
Becoming a certified Master Gardener was a perfect next-step toward a farm and sustainable home of my own. I went back to school, yet again, and studied under the direction of a man who was a genius and well-renowned with plants; Professor Toby Day. Once I was nearing graduation and certification, it was time for me to get the required hands-on hours, and he connected me with a local almost-farmer needing help converting the property he’d inherited.
I cannot recommend Master Gardener studies enough; you learn so much that they just do not cover in most schools, and that they NEVER mention on TV. I learned about so many new types of plants, how they grow best, what they grow together with, how they should be spaced based on how large you plan to let them grow, what spacing requirements prevent forest fires spreading up or down different slopes, and even personal anecdotes the professor had from all his decades of helping people with their own gardens and lawns. I left that classroom every night feeling like I was really on track for once –much more-so than I’d felt while studying I.T..
As always, there were a couple elf-like super-hotties in the class, and it took all I had not to gaze in love and lust at them. Could I have picked one or both of them up? Maybe. I’d picked up a lot of hotties before, even when taller, stronger, better-dressed men had been present and trying. Something was giving me professional pause now that The Shift had happened, though; I just wasn’t as interested anymore, preferring females confident and classy enough to initiate and stay engaging on their own.
Since this time, Inisfree has woven into its core curriculum all I learned in this first round of Master Gardener studies. This is important, because every single residence and business across that city of ours has its own lawns, gardens, and crops; everyone grows their own food and medicinal herbs. I’m really going to love teaching all this stuff to those found worthy of our realm, and love even more seeing those who realize they love it, too.
