Day Three 7/23

I learned about the business part of farming. The CSA across the road has member--they are community who gives the money so that people will be able to eat healthy foods from the farm.
I also learned that food can't be put for too long in a truck or it might go bad.
Different people do certain things in a market or a restaurant. Like the buyers--they're the ones who decide how much food to order, so that customers have enough. If they order too much, they have to discount it to get rid of it. Or they could try to get people to buy another kind.

This is supply and demand. We each made an order of our own for granola bars, and tried to figure out what to order. Then we found what kind everybody wanted, and then we compared it to see how we did. We did fine.
