Only three weeks after Hurricane Milton made a direct hit, we harvested the very first strawberries from our farm. It speaks volumes about the resilience of our whole family of growers who worked so hard to get their farms repaired. Thanks to them, you can expect to see delicious and sweet Florida strawberries soon! #ThankAFarmer #HurricaneMilton #Florida #Strawberries

It's the only means of getting workers at the farm right now, but it's totally outdated." https://lnkd.in/e3RMRuQq
