[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Man, memories are short here.

I can remember during the throes of the pandemic, how many people were opining about living in an area that isn't so populated with people living on top of each other.  I am lucky enough to live in an area like that.  Yes, we have to drive a bit to get places, but I wouldn't trade my life of space and greenery and nature with a "15 minute city" ever.  [/quote]

I see zero appeal in living near or even close to a city.  No thanks.[/quote]

Many of those farmers are growing industrial crops and stuff for export.  [b]It's sad that most of the fruit and vegetables in the local supermarket isn't even US grown.[/b] It's all been corporatized, with very few family farmers left to give us the good stuff.[/quote]

It's called seasonality.  Because of agricultural trade with South America we are able to get fresh fruit and vegetables in our winter and export to them during their winter. That's a good thing and mutually beneficial.  Otherwise it's nothing but root vegetables, preserves and jerkey until mid-spring.[/quote]
