“I joined the Summerschool 2023 and I loved all the lectures. Even if you already understand the theory, hearing the information from the Plant Empowerment experts in person adds an extra dimension. When they are on the stage, the powerful, positive light of their knowledge and wisdom fills the room and our hearts! They have first-hand, practical experience of facing and solving typical problems. They explained everything so clearly and simply – using lots of reallife examples – that it was easy to understand and remember.“

Despite being a five-day course, the intensity was balanced by the open and light-hearted atmosphere. And I know it can be difficult for growers to make time for themselves and leave their greenhouse in someone else’s hands while they’re away, but it’s 100% worth it. There’s a new way of growing out there, and the smartest thing to do is get on board that bus as soon as possible.”

We all shared an eagerness to progress our knowledge by challenging ourselves and one another, which led to some stimulating high-energy discussions. The focus was on sharing knowledge as peers, not competitors, and there was no need to feel embarrassed about asking questions. The atmosphere was very supportive and interactive, thanks not least to the experienced, engaging and approachable presenters.
