I never responded to the article from last week so I would like to start off there. I think the Brazilian program shows a lot of promise and while it may not work in America exactly the same as it has been implemented in Brazil it shows promise for connecting people to their food. The United States Government currently helps and subsidizes big agriculture and if they instead helped small farmers and local food producers it might help a lot more.
This past week has been a good one with the rest of the kids finally arriving at my community garden. We now have 11 kids so I am starting to plan lunchtime activities for them to learn more about the food that they are growing. I would like to improve the educational aspect of the urban garden program in the future so that is an area for me to work on. I will try to add more later in teh week and maybe even some pictures!
