Learning about Farm Economics
Mike Heller who owns this farm informs us about the grassfed cows he raises for meat and the community garden he and volunteers maintain. 40% of his produce goes to places like the D.C. Central Kitchen.
Work for Chesapeake Bay Foundation (CBF)
We arrive at Clagett Farm, part of the CBF, to help install fences to keep cows from polluting streams that ultimately feed into the Bay. A tractor brings us first to the cow barn for feeding time.Aspiring Pediatric Surgeon Mandi Meets Dr. Carson
We spend a few minutes with Dr. Benjamin Carson, Director of Neurosurgery at Johns Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore. Dr. Carson tells us to keep up the good work we are doing and wishes Mandi well on her journey to medical school.

In between surgeries, Dr. Carson passes along inspirational messages to us on the importance of a broad education in a variety of subjects including Calculus, Art, Accounting, etc. He also stressed the importance of "thinking big" and
