My community partner is Potrero Nuevo Farm. The major component about this organization is giving back. One of their main relationships are through the Half Moon Bay Catholic Workers which is an organization that helps bring peace, food, care to people in need. At Potrero Nuevo majority of the harvest that is grown is dedicated towards low income and homeless families that are involved through the Half Moon Bay Catholic Workers. They also have a service called U-Pick Club, which is more geared to middle class families since there is a fee but it allows a person to come pick their own produced by hand in bulk. This process allows residents to know exactly where their food is being distributed from. This makes their interaction on a business and personal side.
Citizen participation can affect my community partner by the high demand. Since they are so connected through organizations as well as business stand point this allows for a high demand of customers to supply for.
