I did not fully appreciate the advantages our diverse city gave us until adulthood. Appreciate the tribute. I only remember 1 trip to the school farm to pick veggies. My paper bag was overloaded and ripped. Loved my veggies even then 😋 😍

That was an inspiring read. Who knew Battle Creek was such an advanced city? You, of course, were a gigantic sponge who not only appreciated the plethora of learning opportunities, you devoured them. Which explains a lot about you.

I do remember Mr Kotter!

[albeit I met him in 1992].

And thanks for "The revolution will not be televised" and Stevie Wonder's song about the city.

And the pioneering kitchen garden and Community Supported Agriculture.

Being that one kid who loved gardening...
