Hey Everyone!  This is Autumn Partlow from Marietta College.  I found both the article and the video to be very interesting and inspiring.  I love that these things are happening!  I would love to see what is happening in Belo happen in the US, but I definitely think the government would have to do some explaining and convincing to us Americans.  

The program I'm working with called Harvest of Hope was somewhat similar to the program that we saw in the video.  Harvest of Hope does community gardens and they're starting a farmer's market for people in low income areas.  However, this market will only take donations rather than putting set prices on the produce.  Another major difference is that we're in a rural area whereas the program in the video was in the Bronx.
