The statement of purpose for " Back To The Land "


The statement of purpose:

In “Back to the land”, Kalman encourages city residence to change the way of growing food and eating habits which will help to improve health and develop a better family relationships, which could be achieved by finding the missing part of democracy that has been lost long time ago, the democracy of healthy eating. Kalman uses her experience in visiting organic farms in California and showing how healthy, naturally and tasty the food is from these farms. Also, the placement of the edible schoolyard program in a middle school in Berkeley help Kalman’s readers understand that introducing old habits to kids make them  understand the concept of healthy food ,encourage them to  work with each other,  and be with their family  , which will eventually lead  to a better social environment.

  2. I also agree that Kalman's purpose in Back to the Land, is to encourage people who live in cities to have better eating habits. I also like the examples you chose to show this, especially the topic of the edible schoolyards.

  3. I like how you picked children as your target market. In addition, you backed up your ideas with children learning from adults, and the best idea of all children learning in a school setting healthy eating habits. Great ideas!
