This is the prompt: Here again, based on your reading of Gary’s Labor and the Locavore, assess the situation of farm workers in the Hudson Valley. What, in your estimation, are the most difficult parts of their work/ personal lives, and what concrete changes would make their daily work lives better? Here, consider the Valera Readings. In your opinion, do Valera’s findings offer helpful ways to look at the situation of farm labor? Based on bioregionalist perspectives and arguments presented here, could they offer a way to advocate for improved conditions for farm workers?
Files of the reading mentioned are attached: including Margaret Gray, Labor and the Locavore (only required reading is “the Workers” section)
