This phrase was eloquently put by our informant over the weekend at the Jerome Park Garden. Jose, a father of three, took his children to the garden for the second time this weekend. Our interview with him went very well and he gave us a true life stories about his father, growing up on a farm, and moving to the states. He shared personal moments of his life and expressed the importance of knowing about gardening and/or small scale farming.
Also, as a Santa Ana resident, Jose was able to tell us what it is like to be a part of the community and everything that goes along with that. The dialogue in the interview was very interesting and should make for great footage. We are also hoping to get permission to take a few shots of the garden from an interesting location. One family that frequents the garden live literally across the street on the second floor of an apartment complex. They have a perfect view of the garden and we really would like to get some footage of the garden from their daily perspective.
Our film is coming along and we are accruing more and more footage each time we visit Santa Ana. We have a few things scheduled such as an interview with Laura and also Cesar Chavez Day at the park which should really strengthen our film. We are optimistic and confident about the future of our film and are excited to complete it and show it to the rest of you.
