#FloridaAg#FloridaGrown#BuyAmerican
Visited L&M Farms and the L&M packing house in #FL03’s very own Palatka, FL yesterday. We discussed the importance of American grown produce and the importance of our hometown farms that can pack and ship fresh-picked items nationwide. Thanks for hosting us! #FloridaAg
Proud to be a part of the #farmerstofamilyfoodbox program through the usda_ams and serving our communities with our produce that we are consolidating from farms all across the country right now #lmfamilyfarms… https://t.co/lxgMgfleeH
Look at all these young leaders in agriculture! Classes from United Fresh Produce Association, Western Growers Association AND Florida Fruit & Vegetable Association merged into a large group as part of this farm tour stop at Duda in South Florida.
Would you willingly trash your office? Neither would farmers. A farmer’s field and surroundings are literally his bread and butter, and farmers take great care to make environmental decisions that will ensure the health of their land for generations. https://t.co/li5YkNnol6
