Developing international programs
Yeah, I try to see garden to become a vehicle to bring people together, some American people, Japanese people. So I have been developing some exchange program, Japan and America. And then last two years ago we had an international conference in Seattle. We invited about thirty people from Japan, Japanese master gardener. And so we hope those people have a chance to work here, and then our students have a chance to learn from them.
