    1. If someone has an organic farm how do they get a stand in a farmer's market and where else can you sell your produce?

    2. I took this class in the first place because I wanted to be an organic farmer as my career. This class has taught me ALOT I think I will use. I also want to do wwoofing and farm internships.

    3. Hanging out in the hammock, the sleepover, and playing in mud!!!
