It was a cold rainy day today. Our class met at a shelter near our garden and finished our needs assessment presentation. Our target audience were pregnant women. We focused on iron and folate supplement, and cultivated a garden consisting of broccoli, spinach, lettuce, tomatoes, pimento peppers, radishes, white navy beans and pinto beans. After presenting group by group, we all moved to the garden and saw every group's work there. It was a really good end for this class. Every group's plow looked wonderful. Although this class is ended, my garden life may be just begin. I would like to think about planting crops myself some other day in future when I have opportunity. Thank Dr. Holben for letting me know community nutrition programs and little knowledge on gardening from this class!
I forgot to mention that on last Saturday, I visited Farm's Market on East State St., Athens, OH. It was very good to have such a experience. All veggetables and fruits were very fresh and organic grown. There were many nice people vending. I bought some peppers and bread. Although the Farm's Market is only twice per week, this special thing is really meaningful for humans' well being .
