The short peak season has begun in the strawberries on CA's Central Coast. In this 9 hour day, "Irma" managed to pick 90 flats or 1,020 of the plastic 1 pint boxes we buy at a supermarket. (A flat holds 12 plastic one pint baskets). She earns $2.20 a flat. #WeFeedYou

It was 28° when workers were pruning grapevines in Sunnyside WA last week. "Larisa" shares, "We need to be careful not to let the branches snap back at us because they really hurt when it is this cold." #WeFeedYou

"Julia" sent this pic from Oxnard CA where there were strong rains earlier this month. "The fields were muddy and difficult to work in. It was very tiring and I earned very little as it's hard to walk through the mud as the mud sticks to my shoes." #WeFeedYou
