After a class discussion about where their food comes from learners construct a farm from a print-out (embedded in the plan). They work in groups, and trace a food source from the beginning. For example, they discover how a farmer grows alfalfa, which is fed to cows, who produce milk, which ends up on their kitchen table for breakfast.
