Don’t forget the visiting insects, birds flying over and rodent poop. And the “occasional” attack of gastrointestinal disease in the picker...always wash your fruits, and vegetables well ..

I would love to buy such produce, but I am in California. The only greenhouse produce I have noticed are cucumbers, which I buy.
