Maria is picking blueberries near Arvin CA. She earns by how many pounds and buckets she can pick in a day. Sometimes the field quality is good but other times she barely makes enough to cover her expenses. #WeFeedYou - ThreadSky

God bless her. I love blueberries, but no way in fucking hell am I doing that.

I so fucking appreciate her (and everyone that does that).

Sounds like a set amount of pay would be more beneficial so she can pay her bills even in bad harvest years ? And pay extra for the times that she and other farmers are able to provide more ?
