Here's a look at various fruits and vegetables being picked

along with some good info. One thing to note is that the workers you see here are working constantly in a heavy exposure environment for pesticides etc. sprayed on the crops. In addition to not a lot of pay you can see how physical this work is and how rapidly they must work. We haven't come too far from Murrow's "Harvest of Shame".

1. When you're strolling through your local Krogers fruit and veggie section "marveling" at $3-5 pints of raspberries

available 365/24/7 amongst all the other "cheap" veggies and fruits (many of which are empty useless calories and so GMO altered they hold a fraction of the nutrients they held even just 25 years ago) available in and out of seasons remember this video. You don't need such a wide selection year round. People don't need fad diets or drugs or anything else. They just need to learn HOW to eat. Something that simple has been lost as it was taught to us over generations. Seriously, I can grow on a 100 sq ft patio enough fruits and veggies to preserve/can and supply one person with every fruit and veggie calorie they need over the winter. Lessons learned from my grandparents and parents and handed down by us, forcefully I might add at times lol, to our children. And if you can grow more, sell it and pay Decembers heating bill.

2. My paternal grandmother

always had a garden and always canned. Until her later years she always made her own summer sausage as well. It would look odd to most people today to open the door to a shed and see sausages hanging there.
