A crisp Fall day, warm sun, the smell of the earth, and the opportunity to learn how nature intended things to grow: it was an Eco Discovery Day at the ACÁ Eco Center and organic farm near Jocotepec, about 30 miles south of Guadalajara, Mexico. Children from the Collegio Antonia Palomares in Jocotepec are on a field trip. This particular group is in the second and third grade of secondary school -- similar to eighth and ninth grade in the U.S. and Canada.
