Everyone belongs to many different communities and/or groups defined by (among other things) shared geography, religion, ethnicity, income, cuisine, interest, race, ideology, or intellectual heritage. Choose one of the communities to which you belong, and describe that community and your place within it. (Approximately 250 words)

Never in my life would I ever imagine myself to be a farmer. But alas, here I am bent over in my high school courtyard garden bed frantically trying to protect my precious squash, Swiss chard and basil from the evil green nutrient-sucking adversaries. Pollution-inducing herbicides and toxic artificial fertilizers are strictly forbidden. After all, this is a one-hundred percent organic sustainable garden! By taking measures such as using compost from school lunches for fertilizer and watering the crops from our rain collection bins, we have successfully grown food in a manner that reduces the negative impacts on the environment. In this kind of community I value the importance of spreading awareness in growing food in a sustainable way that does not have a negative impact on the environment.

In our community, we are a group of passionate, energetic, and creative high school volunteers who have a deep regard for the environment. I personally joined this community because I had an interest in learning how to grow food in a sustainable manner. The garden supports a the belief in conservatism; we do not waste any of our resources and try our best to recycle them in any way possible. Although this may seem to be a bit more tedious and time-consuming, our motivation to grow responsibly preservers through. As a result, we are able to grow enough food each week to harvest and sell with other local farmers at the town Farmer's Market. I personally feel that our garden has succeeded in its goal; we have proven to other people that sustainable food is in fact, a feasible task. Now, we can finally enjoy the fruits (and vegetables) of our labor.

Thank you for the inputs!

Hello,

Generally a good essay. However, you do not fully answer the prompt....What is your place in this community? You used a lot of "we" which is great, but the prompt is asking about YOU as a part of that greater "we." - AAO
