Farm workers like Roberto, shown here planting onions in the bitter cold, say being bent over all day 5-6 days a week hurts their backs but its one of the few jobs available in winter and he must support his family. #WeFeedYou

Benita works in the grapevines near Lemoore CA. This type of vine creates a canopy of sorts as the branches need to be tied and strong to support the weight of the expected grapes. She earns minimum wage for her work. This is how she supports her family. #WeFeedYou

Yesterday, UFW President Teresa Romero and Senator Adam Schiff met in Delano with the families of farm workers who were separated by deportation.
Despite fear and grief, immigrant workers are continuing to feed America.

Rosa sent this pic harvesting brussel sprouts on CAs Central Coast. A machine does the picking & cuts off the stalk. It's then fed by workers into a machine that separates the sprouts. The workers on the side are cutting off the leaves to prep the next row. #WeFeedYou

After watching this video, you will never look at a simple bag of lettuce the same way again.
The average workday for an undocumented immigrant is 10-12 hours, and many get paid below minimum wage because their employers know they are afraid of being deported.
How many Americans want this job?

The weather is bitter cold in upstate New York - and the wind chill made it even worse. But farm workers are out there pruning apple trees. When workers got to the fields it was 12° and the high didn’t get past 18° on the day this pic was sent in. #WeFeedYou

We learned this from Molly. How did she innately possess this wisdom? She always had it, from the time she was a toddler. Fiercely protective of every life, down to the smallest ant 🐜💚. It’s why Molly became a vegetarian at age 4 and never wavered in her commitment. Amazing, huh? #teammolly
