Call to Action Day

Call to Action Day- October 11, 2016

Every year on October 11, Notre Dame de Namur University community  has an event called "Call to Action Day." On this day students and faculty come together to help out our community. By participating in this community service event we can reflect on the Hallmarks of Notre Dame de Namur. For my sustainability and development class, we visited a farm called "Potrero Nuevo Farm" in Half Moon Bay. We met the farm owners- Jay and Suzie and their cute dog named "Bear." They are vey nice people, they gave us a tour around the farm. We also helped them pick pumpkins and buttermilk squash. They were very happy we came and very appreciative that we saved them a day of work. After picking the pumpkins and squash we moved them into a greenhouse and for lunch we had delicious mac n' cheese. It was a really cool experience to meet new people and learn new things about sustainability, I enjoyed myself (:
