Healthy food is expensive whether it’s fresh vegetables, organic fruits, whole grain loafs, or lean meats. Although many of us can easily purchase these food items there are others who can’t. These people are the poor, the immigrants, or labor workers. They’re people who are in situations we may not understand. Some wake up and work all day just to receive little pay.

Jack: the hardest project I've done so far is when we repaired and painted the chicken coop. it was difficult because my partners did'nt show up some times and the hay was hard to get out. Will: what have you learned about growing plants?

Will: that's the end of our interveiw, thanks.
