Small farmers worship God and love their neighbors. Agribusiness worships money and eradicates the neighborhood. If you want to help yourselves that please do as Carole so aptly wrote, "buy locally, especially now that summer is here. the fruits and produce will be fresher and tastier. plus, it’ll help out your farmers and reduce transportation costs (both money & environmental)."
