Workers in Parma Idaho pick bell peppers by hand. The peppers are then placed on a conveyer belt to be sorted and have trash removed. The work is fast paced and the days can be long since farm workers do not get overtime in Idaho. #WeFeedYou

As you enjoy a glass of wine, Daniel, a farm worker in Napa CA, would like to remind you of the foggy day he pruned the grapevines. Pruning is done during the winter when the plant is dormant which means cold, wet & foggy weather for farm workers like Daniel. #WeFeedYou
