Growing my own food was not a new experience for me. I had grown my own food at a camp I worked at this summer. The food went to poor families in the area of New York I was working in. Growing my own food is rewarding every time I do it. I have never done it in a jar but it was a good experience. It is rewarding to eat something you have worked hard to grow. My process took a week and that might seem long to a farmer but from what have been reading in Omnivore’s Dilemma By Michael Pollan. To watch my food grow is inspiring, it’s a tine seed that opens up in to its own thing and grows. I feel I watch this process with kids I work with, every month they seem bigger and more developed than last I saw them just like my sprouts. The sprouts tasted like grass and did nothing for the ham sandwich.
