“And weeds? I will never forget her terse observation: 'Back home, we don't have any weeds. We only have plants for which we have not yet found a use.”
Peter Denton, Live Close to Home

“She said how ludicrous it was to plant huge fields of the same kinds of crops, guaranteeing pests -- and the need to use chemicals -- when, back home, the same crop was planted every seven rows. Mixing things up meant that a pest would starve before reaching the next row it needed to eat.”
Peter Denton, Live Close to Home

“Unlike information, knowledge is always local, woven together with where we learn it and where we learn to use it. Yet knowledge does not exist in a vacuum. It requires other people, to teach us, to value what we do, and to join with us in community -- in a context where information that has become knowledge can then be turned into wisdom.”
Peter Denton, Live Close to Home
