Day 4: Nogales and driving to Ajo.

This morning we packed up our bags and said goodbye to Patagonia. We drove to Nogales and met Alex who runs Borderlandia. Alex showed us the border wall and explained the unique history as a border town.

We saw a bunch of murals around the town that depicted the resistance to the militarization of the boarder wall. 

“From there we ate some “bussin’” tacos for lunch.”- Ben Levin.

We had the opportunity to meet Yolanda from Borderlands Produce Rescue and how her nonprofit uses its resources to keep products out of landfills.
We got a tour of the warehouse and were very fascinated with her organization and resources.

 We got a lot of great interviews from both Alex and Yolanda that we are excited to use for our video product.
