《beyond the classroom》


In a very beautiful morning, with shady weather and sirens of roosters, the students tour is kick started with an unprecedented spectacular lesson.
Will, one of the sincere and passionate runner of ‪#‎FOLO‬ farm introduced #FOLO, being “Feed Our Loved Ones”. sharing the reasons and visions of FOLO. while the students who come with mission, started to take videos and pictures, jot down notes. . .
Adrian, a selfless film maker (I suppose, there is a better way of introducing him), using his humor and amusing way to guide the students on story crafting. Sharing tips and ideas of making a good video clip. The hall was lived up with joys and laughter.
Will led the students touring around the farm, patiently shared the value of natural farming, the miracle of natural ecology, the passion of the farmer of FOLO, etc and etc. Students tasted different vegetable leaves and spices, plucked directly from the plants around them, without worry of chemicals.
Students landed on the site that filled with "yuck!" smiles in the noon, that is production farm in Ban Foo.
Will explained the source of the smell, being wastes collected from kitchen and how FOLO processes it and turns it into good property.
The students were amazed and wowed by the fact of wastes collected turn into golds. And that comes to the end of the trip.
Postscript:
"What is so fun about organic farm?"
Before the student landed on the farm, they question about the value of visiting an organic farm.
And towards the end of the trip, the students were so thankful for having this trip.
I believe the trip has open up their eye view and wider their mind set. Do hope that they see the values of "Corporate Social Responsibility", being an individual or an organisation. Deep in the bottom of my heart, I wish it gives a little ripple in their life, loves the mother earth as what FOLO does.
Here, thanks to Jacq, WIll and Adrian enthusiastic hospitality. Do hope that #FOLO will get more responses in the near future!
Heart heartfelt blessing #FOLO
