I am a student learning English.
I wrote something off the top of my head to improve English ability.
Would you check to see if there are any awkward expressions?

Q: A growing number of people who are concerned with the effect of pesticides are buying organic produce. How do you think about this?
Have you noticed this trend in your community?
A: Sure, I have. Whichever mega markets you go to, you can easily find the section for organic food.
I think this trend is good. This trend shows people starts to realize the value of something natural and they are willing to pay more for their health and the environment.
However, the problem is that it is also related to money. Rich people can purchase healthier food, but the underprivileged people cannot. They cannot help but eating cheaper and low-quality food. From someday, organic has come to mean expensive and luxury.
People say that we have to buy organic foods for the environment and it is the right action, but how could we demand poor people to sacrifice themselves for our plan? Especially the urban poor even cannot grow vegetables because they don’t have the land. Plus, the government has ignored the farm industry, so we have little land for farming.
In that aspect, I think growing organic food at lower price is important in order to let more people have it. In addtion, the government needs to examine strictly the use of banned pesticide and encourage people to find out the way to grow plants in a natural way.
Composting is breaking down of the plants’ residuals and other organic matters which end up with creation of dark, friable matter which has excellent properties as a fertilizer for the gardens and in the agriculture in general. Actually, this is a way to recycle the residuals from the kitchens and house-yards which is crucial step in the reducing the volume of the waste. Every day we are facing with the plant’s residuals left on the green markets, city lawns and like which eventually end in the waste containers.
I am going to take a oral exam. The topic is Describe something you do that is good for your health.
Here is my preparation. Is it good enough? Is it proper for an ORAL exam? Is it far more likely to be a written English rather tan an oral one? Could you help me to correct it? Thank you!
Many people think of gardening as a chore, but I take up gardening as a hobby and a healthy habit. Yes, I have an own secret garden. Every weekend I spend about a half day on gardening. I plant flowers and vegetables in it.
Gardening is very satisfying and offer me many health related benefits.
First of all, when I tend to my garden I am working outside in the fresh air and getting gentle exercise. Every muscle in my body can be exercised.
Furthermore, gardening is also a very good relaxing pastime, to both mind and body. If gardens are beautiful to look at, imagine the pride and sense of accomplishment that the creator of such beauty can feel. Besides that, gardening is a great way to reduce stress, get a bit of exercise, be creative, and develop patience.
Meanwhile, I grow and eat all my own vegetables. They are truly organic, and I never use pesticides or sprays of any sort - nor artificial fertilizers. They are pure natural green food. Also, eating more vegetables, and especially home-grown vegetables, is a simple way to ensure that a body is getting a proper balance of vitamins and nutrients.
Overall, gardening brings about sufficient exercise, relax mood and healthy diet. I really in to it and believe it is a magic weapon to keep fit.

We decided to make our celebration a weekend event. We desired creating community together with our families and our closest friends. To be true to ourselves and our values, it is going to be organic and environmentally focused. Out of love and consideration to others we want to consider our interests and values as well.
One of our main wedding goals is to show the best of who we are. “From the beginning, we have envisioned our wedding experience as a celebration that brings together our family and close friends in a relaxed environment that reflects our values while at the same time respects our cultural traditions. We see the weekend as a model for the lives that we would like to live.”
We wanted a wedding that was unique, fun and most of all small and intimate. We wanted to celebrate our big day with our families.http://www.edgeworthinn.com
The inn is an 1896 National Register of Historic Places Property.The Edgeworth Inn is an antique filled Queen Ann style home nestled in Monteagle’s Chautauqua Assembly which was founded in 1883 and has been continuously operating since its inception with 300 acres to explore atop the Cumberland Plateau.
Our ceremony is Saturday, October 24,2009 at 11:00 in the morning. It will be held in the beautiful garden which will be filled with fall foliage and flowers.
The Moses Rock Spring, housed in an old stone structure in an area called Moses Rock Park, was the original source of water for the visitors and animals of the Assembly in the 1800s. In 2007, to commemorate the 125th year of the existence of the Assembly grounds, longtime resident Aileen O’Brien devised the idea of a water feature and gardens on a previously neglected hillside, which would be enjoyed by children at play and enhance the greenspace near the pool and central buildings. A young stonemason from Lookout Mountain, D.J. Giles, was selected to create the water feature, and Aileen O’Brien developed the landscaping. An Assembly member, Mrs. Ruth Grace Jervis, provided the funding as a memorial for her recently deceased husband, Wayne Talmage Jervis, Jr., who was a skilled landscaper and cultivated beauty wherever he lived. A year was spent developing the area now known as Moses Rock Park and Waterfall. The water pours out from under a rock and builds up steam as it rolls down the landscape, splashing into a pondless basin with water-loving natives. A gazebo, stone tables and benches provide shady seats to enjoy the sounds of falling water. According to O’Brien, the landscaping is ongoing and continues each spring. Among the plants that are included along the water feature are Ferns, Roses, Junipers, Hostas, Azaleas (both native and cultivated), Rhododendron, Iris, Columbine, Daylilies, Carolina Jasmine, Creeping Phlox, Creeping Jennie, Narcissus, Butterfly Bush, French ***** Willows, Red Crape Myrtle, Forsythia, Dogwoods, River Birch, and Mountain Laurel, and a number of water plants, herbs, and annuals.
The Rev. William S Wade, former headmaster of our school will be conducting the ceremony.
