Fieldtrip

 The trip we took to the farm was interesting. I was able to see what a real farm is like. I think it was very interesting how we distinguish between toxin and non-toxin, organic spray and non-organic spray. I always thought that organic was something that does not include chemical. Like many mention, organic seem more like a process. It's not what is not a chemical and non-toxic that is organic. It's the big group that decide it on how they see it, like how you can use non-organic spray if there is no organic spray of that kind to be found. I thought it was also interesting how the market was consider a local market, but then a lot of the food in there was not produced locally. I think that the amount of carbon footprint we produced by going to that trip was worth it because I've learn from the experience.
