    After taking this class I will be in communications with a man who just retired and lives in New Mexico who came up with a way of composting where your garden will be pest free naturally and your fruits will last much longer once picked. It has something to do with minerals and a method of bricking. I can't wait to incorporate that method with this course.

    This was probably one of the best classes I have taken. Very informative, lots of information and great people. Now, I need to prepare what I promised about the bricking. Stay tuned.

    Well done, great teachers and participants. My husband started saving my tea leaves this morning for our soon-to-be-created compost pile!
