“The reason I’m doing this course is that I want to learn more about growing vegetables. I got sick and tired of going to the grocery store and not finding lettuce on the shelf…I was taken aback because we’re in a country where you can always grow something,” says Jennifer.

<h2>Jennifer</h2>
Over Covid, Jennifer took the time to think about what she loved and realised that being out in the garden made her happiest.&nbsp;
&ldquo;The reason I&rsquo;m doing this course is that I want to learn more about growing vegetables. I got sick and tired of going to the grocery store and not finding lettuce on the shelf&hellip;I was taken aback because we&rsquo;re in a country where you can always grow something,&rdquo; says Jennifer.&nbsp;

And so she signed up for the Certificate III on Horticulture AHC30722, which is a Free TAFE course.&nbsp;
According to Jennifer, Box Hill Institute has given her tangible resources and tools to help her cultivate a better crop. &ldquo;For example, I&rsquo;ve learned to tell beneficial bugs from bad bugs&mdash;instead of running out to buy weedkiller, I&rsquo;m learning about alternatives, which means I can grow healthier vegetables.&rdquo;
She also loves the quality of teaching. &ldquo;My lecturer is really passionate about everything, which makes me passionate too. She knows I&rsquo;m looking into hydroponics, and even through it&rsquo;s not part of the certificate course, she goes above and beyond to answer my questions.&rdquo;
Apart from that, Jennifer thinks that the setting in which she&rsquo;s learning is perfect for the course. &ldquo;Lilydale Lakeside Campus is beautiful. There&rsquo;s the lake right there. You get to plant something and watch it grow from start to finish, (unlike some places where) there&rsquo;s a garden and you just maintain it.&rdquo; &nbsp;
On top of that, she&rsquo;s found a community of peers through the course. &ldquo;The students are fantastic and really lovely. We all pitch in to help each other out!&rdquo;
