This is great! Thank you so much for this information. VERY interesting! Only one question: when it comes to everything but the turkeys, who is actually harvesting these crops? I’ve got a feeling that for these large numbers, it’s not just farmers. There must be quite of bit of immigrant assistance. Do you have any statistics on this? I just think on Thanksgiving we should be grateful for the folks in the fields who harvest our foods. Thanks!
