A report by the nonprofit Great Valley Center found that while the 19-county region that makes up California's Central Valley leads the nation in agriculture production, its per capita income would rank 48th in the nation if the region was a state.
My take: Our nation undervalues food.
I wonder how these statistics compare to other countries with fertile agricultural regions.
About Me: Jeremy wears many hats, including substitute teacher, school garden educator, hike leader, youth group advisor, Gardener's Swap Meet coordinator, husband, and father. His lifelong quests include the search for the perfect burrito, and more recently, how to sprout an avocado tree from a pit.
