amateur or volunteer?

When it comes to the garden, are you an amateur or a volunteer?
1. amateur. A person who engages in a study, sport, or other activity for pleasure rather than for financial benefit or professional reasons. (from Dictionary.com)

3. volunteer. One who voluntarily offers her services in any capacity; one who of his own free will takes part in any enterprise. (from the OED)


I like the term amateur --someone who simply does something for the love of it.
