I didn't mind growing my own food I would have rather had a different veggie, other than radishes. Its pretty simple to do, but I had to keep up with the watering and draining. On some days I forgot but if I had set it up as more of a routine then it would be more likely that they would have grown more or looked healthier. This assignment made me realize that it must be incredibly difficult to run a farm. I know that if I grew crops and harvested for a living I would be a lot more attached to my food and would put my produce on the market at a high price. The process of growing the sprouts was a little magical, it was surprising to see how much they grown in such a short little time, without much effort. I wouldn't say it was a sacred experience because I didn't value the sprouts at a high level, possibly if I was growing something more time consuming or laboring I would have considered the product of my efforts to be sacred.
