Once more; with our gratitude towards Mushrooms Canada, for allowing us to use their video.

For all those that never met him in person as an educator, see video below.
Written permission from Mushrooms Canada for using their video.
Already on April 13, 2020 husband Pieter did receive a reply to his request for being able to insert a link to videos produced by then Canadian Mushroom Growers' Association click for their FB Page.
WITH GRATITUDE for being allowed to use this video's link!
Don't you just LOVE their unique SLOGAN?!

Best also to view on YouTube as there are clickable points built in—below video in text!

Again: Readers and/or viewers, should realize, that such a Technology Transfer Seminar was done in a 2nd language for us. Always so for the impromptu, without paper or any note points. 
Also, answering any upcoming questions from the audience.
Try doing this, for hours on end...
You must thrive on a lot of knowledge and practical experience for being able to do this spontaneously, time and time again, and with the same enthusiasm as you did for the very first time!

    1. Querida Antónia,
      Gracias y sí, ese es mi objetivo para estos mensajes especiales, como una adición a nuestro libro. A partir de ahora voy a publicar más general sin embargo...
      Abrazos,

  2. Hello Mariette, While I am sure that it was sometimes challenging or physically tiring (all that travel!) for Pieter and you to disseminate your expertise, there is also a satisfaction in that a lifetime of study and hard work is appreciated by and useful to others, and is not just arcane knowledge that must be kept bottled inside.

    1. Dearest Jim,
      Thank you for your remark and yes, to our knowledge, this is the most satisfying of our work that you can reach so many by passing on your gathered expertise. While working for Campbell Soup however they forced us to keep it as an arcane knowledge as I was prohibited to work for any US mushroom farm and neither was Pieter allowed to update his English book. So I flew to Germany on my own for doing consulting there... Pieter went to Campbell's mushroom farm in Australia and over the phone we kept our long distance marriage going.
      Hugs,
      Mariette

  3. You absolutely have to know your subject inside out to confidently hold an open question seminar like this, your husband certainly does Mariette.. and in his second language 💜

    1. Dearest Grace,
      You observed keenly the ingredients for being a successful teacher on this very broad and intricate subject. It includes many jobs at once, also a lot of psychology for knowing how to best pass on your knowledge to others by not telling them what to do but teaching them the far more important how and why.
      Hugs,
      Mariette

  4. Yes doing all this with your 2nd language is really amazing! You do need to have a deep and wide knowledge about the subject. Being able to share it must be very rewarding for yourselves in addition to being beneficial for participants.

    Have a great day, Mariette xo

      So happy that Pieter's knowledge once more got preserved in our latest book. There is no teacher like my Pieter on the subject... This job has given both of us a lot of satisfaction and above all, many friends all over the world.

      Thank you and Pieter's book often has been called the Mushroom Bible...
      We both are grateful that it has helped so many all over the world, especially those that live in less developed areas.
