Education

To Garden is to never stop learning...

13 Gardening Books
I am a proud graduate of  Satchel Ford Elementary School (1969), Fairwold Middle School (1971), and A. C. Flora High School, class of 1975.

I attended Clemson University from 1975 to 1977, and left to study at L'Abri Fellowship in England in the spring and summer  of 1978. I received a B.S. in Biology from the University of South Carolina in 1979.

In 1980 I trekked out west to study at Regent College Vancouver BC and there  received a one year Certificate in Christian Studies.

I attended the University of South Carolina for the purposes of teacher certification in 1981/82.

In 1987, after teaching high school science for five years, I went back to Vancouver to attend, again,  Regent College, and graduated with a Master of Divinity in 1989.

Much if not most of a real education comes after we go to school - in further reading and processing, in preparation for teaching and so forth. 



Lately my gardening education has grown in leaps and bounds with the purchase of Michael Dirr's Manual of Woody Landscape Plants: Their Identification, Ornamental Characteristics, Culture, Propogation and Uses, and Allan Armitage's  Herbaceous Perennial Plants: A Treatise on Their Identification, Culture and Garden Attributes.
