      ​@@TampaJay it is indeed hardwork and low pay by our standards. However, most is sent back to their Countries and families where such pay is better sadly (& yes, good luck finding Gen Z or any other to do it; technology is the issue perhaps). But, any quick look at demographics to pick this or that, drastically changes all aspects of the community and birthrate levels (which is instantly a legal us citizen). So, it comes at a cost to what a community may have been. Thousands of communities changed from 90% European-American to less than 35% since 1990 of these communities. From schools to libraries, that is an entire new World regardless of pc or not pc views.

    Really enjoyed this video Jay. Originally from Northern Michigan and my grandma was the same way with canning everything from my grandpa’s garden. Their old cellar was filled with enough jars to supply our entire family all year until the next crops! My favorites were her canned tomatoes and beets too! What I wouldn’t give to have another jar of each and her here again.❤️ Maybe our paths with cross at the Strawberry Festival!

    Great video. I sure wish we could get Plant City strawberries up here in Kentucky. You always seem to show something that triggers a memory for me from when I lived in the Tampa Bay area and other parts of Florida. My Mom got her first teaching job at an elementary school in Plant City. It was not desegregated yet and was all black. She loved it. When you mentioned the high school, I forgot I went there from KHS on the school bus for a football game. It was raining and we lost, but it was fun.
