FEEDBACKS FROM THE HIGH SCHOOL YOUTH AT HAMILTON HIGH SCHOOL
LOS ANGELES
Dear Uncle Leslie,
I really enjoyed your presentation yesterday. It uplifted my spirits and made me feel like I had to do something to make our planet better. Personally, I don't eat vegetables but everything you said changed my mind about it. I do need to change my eating habits and I do need to grow my own vegetables. You kept the classes' attention. You were funny, and you kept us interested. You'll probable be the man that'll actually get our generation to do their part in helping rebuild our enchanted garden.

I was very impressed by the natural sprays. You had different types of mixtures which I was interested in trying, because I remember I sprayed this one essence and when I was going home all my emotions settled and I felt brand new.

"THAT'S ORGANIC! THAT'S REAL FOOD!"
Youth at Hamilton High School enjoy an organic yellow watermelon from J.R. Organics, fifth and sixth generation local organic farmers from San Diego County. Securing The Organic Future at the Rodriguez Ranch, a land that needs to be back in the family hands, is one fundraising project on my Radar.
INTRODUCING YOUTH TO ORGANIC FOODS
Introducing Youth, beginning at Hamilton High School, to organic food and natural remedies is another pilot project
Dear Uncle Leslie,
I really enjoyed the lecture you gave us (and the watermelon!) It taught me that you need to eat all of the right foods to be whole and live your dream. I could relate to a lot of it, especially the part about planting your seed to live your dream, even if you don't know what your dream is quite yet. Something you taught me was to eat organic foods because they are much healthier. Also, you taught me that shopping at local farmers markets will benefit us and the farmer. The local farmers really care about our well being and after I ate the watermelon, I believe it. The whole presentation was very interesting and educational in a good way. Thanks for taking your time and talking to us about this important subject.

Dear Uncle Leslie,
Ya, we appreciate your support Uncle Leslie!! Love you very much. You are a great and wise teacher!!
Every child should have mud pies,
grasshoppers, water-bugs, tadpoles,
frogs, mud-turtles, elderberries, wild
strawberries, acorns, chestnuts, trees to
climb, brooks to wade in, water-lilies,
woodchucks, bats, bees, butterflies, var-
ious animals to pet, hay-fields, pine-
cones, rocks to roll, sand, snakes,
huckleberries and hornets; and any
child who has been deprived of these has
been deprived of the best part of his ed-
ucation.
