Her son Alston Clark thinks his experience is very valuable.“I like coming out here,” he says,“ You know, you connect with the earth, where your food comes from. You appreciate the food a little bit more.”

She thinks of it as a place where people can learn to live healthier lives. “Growing food in a community brings people together,” she continues, “Every piece of what we do here is a demonstration(示範) to show people everything about how to have an eco-friendly community.” she says.
