Pros
Loads of opportunity to develop my knowledge and skills of gardening. Outdoor work away from a desk job on a computer. Keeps me fit by being good exercise. Can be social Everyday is different. Am my own boss so can plan my work to suit family & friends. Great opportunity to meet like minded people who may be gardeners themselves or the actual customers. Have been very fortunate to have great clients who appreciate my efforts. Clients wear flexible when I was unable to work due to famIly commitments or illness
Cons
May sometimes not be so sociable. Sometimes work can be repetitive though not usual. Heavy rain may sometimes put a stop to work.
