It's really that generational knowledge that is needed, while eduaction is fine, I felt education somehow deleted thsoe things in perspective to my community.
My grandparents were farmers and my parents were professionals, and we went to school too, so whatever knowledge and skills my grannies had it was never been passed to us and will likely to be gone after our generation since we don't have much records/literature.
I am personally busy on my laptop and only do gardening every 3 days or so, even if I want to, homesteading/farming is difficult when priorities are torn between sustainability and stable income. :(
