The UFW stands w/ @sbworkersunited.org workers going on strike today.

For nearly 4 yrs, Starbucks baristas have been fighting for a fair union contract, just like the fight that farmworkers face, far too often, when up against greedy employers. Join us in our support.

Traditionally, this is what friends with pickups are for. You pay up in beer.
I needed to haul something very large and heavy today. Did I buy a pickup truck, saddling myself with insane monthly payments, insurance, and maintenance? Nope, I rented one for $80, did the task, and returned it. It's that simple.

"Mari" shared this pic from where she is sorting sweet potatoes based on their shape and size in Merced county CA. "Each day our team of six people usually fill about 8-10 of these bins that could weigh more than 1,000 lbs each." #WeFeedYou

I'm making a choice. It's Warner, Alberta rather than Granum, Alberta. One is absolutely real.

I'm good with that.

"Gaspar" says "it is a very windy day in Madera where I'm picking pomegranates. The work is already hard as I have to go up and down a ladder all day while getting pricked by thick thorns. Today to top it off, the wind blew a lot of dirt into the air and into my eyes." #WeFeedYou

Just put the 21lb turkey into the oven-5 hours from now. Why now? Norbest turkeys were on special, .87/lb, only until Remembrance Day. 21lbs of turkey (less than that of course, excluding carcass) will see me & my Gud Boy Archie thru the New Year. Yes I defrosted it. Yes I got rid of the icky bits.

There is a man using a gas-powered leaf blower to clean up a neighbour's front patio. The patio is enclosed by a 5' wall. The patio is approximately 7'x9'. There is one tree planted there. He has been at this for the last 20 minutes. 7x9. Shall I offer him the use of my push broom?

Workers in Merced County, CA are harvesting sweet potatoes. There's so much work at this time of year that there are multiple shifts. These workers start at 4 a.m. when it's still dark. Lamps hung on the tractor give them enough light to sort the potatoes by size into boxes. #WeFeedYou

For info only-one good-size head of cabbage will result in 2 quarts of sauerkraut w/caraway. This is how the 'hired girl' made it for my Calgary family, when we sponsored her after the war. The daughter of a Bavarian innkeeper, she arrived all by herself, courtesy of an Alberta programme. Bravery!

A grape harvest crew sets the freshly picked grapes out to dry. Without the intense summer heat, the humidity during fall and winter poses a different challenge. It is vital to ensure the fruit is dry before being packed in boxes and shipped all around the world. #WeFeedYou
