From the United Farm Workers Facebook page:
Please remember where your food comes from and how it it got there as we look to [the] Thanksgiving Holiday. Thank you to all the individuals who harvest our food.
So, so true. For more facts on the farmworkers, many of whom are migrants from Latin America, who bring us our food every day of the years, see here, here, and here. More broadly, we should always be aware of where our food comes from, how it’s raised and harvested, how the workers who do all that are treated, etc. Once we have that information, we can make informed choices about what to purchase, where, etc.
