Re: [ENABLED] Looking for people to interview

Thank you for responding to my request for disabled/elderly
gardeners to interview.  These are the questions I would
like you to answer about your gardening experience:

1.      How does your disability affect your gardening?  (You may
choose whether or not you want to name a specific
disability.

2.      What special tools have you found that help you overcome
your limitations?

3.      Has this limitation to gardening had a psychological
affect on you?  (By the way, this is very normal!).

4.      How have you changed your gardening to overcome the
difficulties?

5.      What advice would you give to another gardener that
developed the same condition that changed your gardening
style?
