What are some lessons that only hands-on experience with farming can teach?

Farming teaches you that nature is a perfect and delicate balance; that whatever you do to the soil good or bad it will come back to you sooner or later. Farming is not a project schedule; there are many more variables in your crops that can affect the size, growth speed, taste, or quality of your produce. Farming is getting in touch with our planet again; is hearing Gaia´s voice again, trying to understand what she says. There is a very deep and lovely feeling you get when you harvest your produce: it is simply amazing how -from a very small seed- you got to have beautiful, tasty, and healthy vegetables. And, if you find a way to combine your diverse knowledge with farming, in order to produce better and healthier veggies, with no chemical stuff oh boy, you are in heaven.
