Linh is studying as an exchange student at Hobart College in New York State, USA. She is now living with the Spates family on a farm in Canandaigua, about 6 hours’drive from New York City. Mr. and Mrs. Spates run an organic farm. It is not very big, but they can still grow all kinds of vegetables like cabbages, carrots, lettuce and so on. They grow different vegetables in different seasons. They also raise some cows for milk and a few chickens. Mr. and Mrs. Spates have a son and a daughter, but they both live away from home. Therefore, Mr. Spates has to hire part – time workers during the harvest time. Sometimes, Linh also helps on the farm. She enjoys feeding the cows and the chickens. Sometimes she goes to the local market with Mrs. Spates to sell the products. On weekends, Linh often goes on picnics with Mr. and Mrs. Spates. There are beautiful picnic sites in Glenn National Park, just about one hour’drive from their farm. Mr. and Mrs. Spates are very nice, so Linh feels like a member of the family.
