Time swap - my PC training skills for your landscaping help
- I used to be a a IT instructor, teaching beginner to advanced. These days I enjoy using my PC about ten hours a day for all kinds of simple and complicated things.
- My gardens could do with an visually good upgrade of landscaping. I have a veg garden as well as flower beds and trees. Ordinary sized section. I've got rid of all the paspallum, which took me a year, reluctantly using weed killer, see brown area in picture. =)
- It's not at all important or urgent, and I can do it myself, I don't want to pay to do it (other than plants or other items).
- But I'd be willing to swap skills if someone who's a keen landscaper gardener, wants to learn how to use their PC and the internet better.
- Each hour of your time designing and/or doing the landscaping would negotiate one hour of my time enabling you to use your PC much better.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
