This sounds interesting, but what is a reflective farm?

According to the text behind the link:

"We believe that a few hours of digging one’s hands in dirt – to understand the origins of our food – is the most powerful (and exciting) way to engage in conversation about how our daily choices deeply impact our personal health and the health of our surrounding communities. With food, engaging the conversation is easy – everyone loves it, it is core to our cultural fabric, and we need it to survive. Accordingly, we create learning and discussion around difficult subjects like farm labor conditions and industrial waste pollution, and we do it through a positive and solutions-oriented approach."

So, reflective farm-experiences, rather than reflective-farm experiences.

(I wondered the same thing)
