American who moved to the tropics.
February 23rd 2008 22:33
Although I was raised on a farm in Indiana, and although I have been doing Christian work overseas most of my life, I am now settled into semi-retirement in Tropical Asia.
I am learning a lot about growing plants in the tropics now. Some of what I learned has been by making mistakes, but some of my knowledge comes from my childhood on the Hoosier farm. Much knowledge about growing plants is transferable. From growing soybeans and field corn to growing gumamelas (hibiscus) and papayas in the tropics is not so great a transition.
Let me take time every few days to share photos and things that I have tried since moving to the Philippines over four years ago.
Check back often to see what changes I have made in this blog.
