I can tell you what is needed for a plant to grow, and describe its growth cycle. I can tell you how the following things help in gardening: worms, bees, ladybugs, spiders, compost, thinning, weeding. I can appreciate some differences between food that comes fresh from the garden, and that which comes from the store. I can appreciate better what goes into growing vegetables and be open to growing them myself.
