Dear Elizabeth
Re; Tropical Vegatables Course
I have over the years attended many courses, seminars and lectures and had become accustomed to sitting through many hours just to acquire to odd snippet of new information.
It was so refreshing therefore to have attended such a information packed course. I particularly appreciated the way you had structured each day and the balance of theory and practice. My attention span is not quite what it was, yet I can only remember having experienced “heavy eyes” on one occasion and that was when things ran over time a little.
Not being a “Permaculture Purist” I did appreciate being allowed to voice my views without being treated a complete heretic! In fact I was pleasantly surprised how well the participants came together as a group by the end of the course as was amply demonstrated in session 9 and on the final day.
I know you have provided me with the knowledge and enhanced enthusiasm to embark upon a whole series of new gardening adventures……thank you.
I hope that, even without the support of TAFFE, you are able to continue with this course as I am confident there are many, many people who would benefit from it and enjoy it.
Yours sincerely
Mel Hobbins
