Yes, and I care much more about that than organic vs non organic or whatever other marketing crap people come up with
I buy most of my meat, eggs, veggies from local farmers, either at the farmers market, or through ordering through their FB pages
all the other meat in my freezer came directly from the woods or lakes of LA

I pay quite a bit of attention to it. I try to buy produce as locally as possible, as well as eggs, honey, and beef. Half of a shorthorn steer will fill up my freezer next week. I also try not to buy ridiculously out of season produce flown in from another hemisphere (like asparagus in Nov/Dec/Jan, or citrus in July)
But if you are specifically interested in the conditions experienced by people who are handpicking, sorting, etc your produce, you might want to read The American Way of Eating, by Tracie McMillan. She works at an Applebees, at WalMart, and finally, as a farm worker in the CA Central Valley. Interesting stuff.

My post was intended to be a bit more whimsical, but your methods are admirable.

There are rumors that there are fish in the waters around Savannah, but I can't catch nuthin.
Hunting isn't my thing.
