Preflection for CBL experience at Potrero Nuevo Farm

I noticed the images the people are picking their own vegetables or plants. This is interesting because I have always wanted to do that after watching documentaries of students getting to choose their own fruits and vegetables and taking it back to their schools for the cafeteria to use and cook. This is significant because in my high school we had nasty cafeteria lunches and the teacher wanted to start a campaign to change the food in the cafeteria and to support her argument she showed the documentary that I just mentioned above.

I notice that they have like a cafe with tea, snacks, and all sorts of stuff. I think this is interesting because it seems like a place where it revitalizes a person.

I notice that the farm does not use any chemicals on the plants. This is revealing because nowadays most plants are sprayed with harsh chemicals.

"This club offers people an opportunity to experience more intimately the source of their food(potreronuevofarm)."
This is revealing because sometimes people do not think of where their food comes from. Although some packages may advertise that they are healthy the processes that the food goes through is not. For example, with Nestle water bottles, it seems good because water is good for humans, but if a person were to read the fine print on the label the source of the water says Public Water System, or something like that which means it is basically sewer water or the water used in the toilet that some people are drinking. So it is important to understand where food is from and how it is made.
