Kalem explained that one of the reasons he prefers a mule to a tractor is because it “doesn’t pollute the area around us.” Cody immediately snickered and added, “Well, not too much!” Which reminded Kalem that the mules also help fertilize the garden as they go. The boys’ mother, Tammy Rogers, says she’s pleased her sons have taken on
the garden as their summer job. She says she is delighted they are learning values a lot of other kids don’t learn anymore. I’d call them old-fashioned values.
