Tonight is the 1st night of #Passover. We dip parsley (Karpas) in salt water to recognize the spring time. Salt water symbolizes the tears and sweat of enslavement. As we hold Seders, remember the farm workers who are out in the fields harvesting the food we’re eating. #WeFeedYou

Kern County farm workers like Teresa will bunch up hundreds of small onions during the summer heat. They do this on their hands and knees for up to 8 hours each day. #WeFeedYou
While many of us are enjoying #LaborDay as a day off, farm workers are laboring in the fields. Yesi sent this pic while working in the sweet potatoes in Merced County CA. They work for minimum wage while bringing this vegetable to our tables. #WeFeedYou
Marisol displays a bunch of red grapes in the Bakersfield CA area vineyard. She is carefully cleaning the cluster removing any bad grapes. This skilled work results in the beautiful clusters we see in the supermarket. #WeFeedYou
