Yet amid this turn to wholesome and responsible food choices, the lives and working conditions of farmworkers are often an afterthought.Labor and the Locavore focuses on one of the most vibrant local food economies in the country, the Hudson Valley that supplies New York restaurants and farmers markets. Based on more than a decade's in-depth interviews with workers, farmers, and others, Gray's examination clearly shows how the currency of agrarian values serves to mask the labor concerns of an already hidden workforce. She also explores the historical roots of farmworkers' predicaments and examines the ethnic shift from Black to Latino workers. With an analysis that can be applied to local food concerns around the country, this book challenges the reader to consider how the mentality of the alternative food movements implies a comprehensive food ethic that addresses workers' concerns. 606 $aAgricultural laborers$xAbuse of$zHudson River Valley (N.Y. and N.J.) 606 $aAgricultural laborers$xEmployment$zHudson River Valley (N.Y. and N.J.) 606 $aLabor policy$zHudson River Valley (N.Y. and N.J.) 610 $aagrarian values. 610 $aagriculture. 610 $acooking. 610 $aculinary. 610 $aculture. 610 $aenvironmental protection. 610 $aethnic shift. 610 $afarm life. 610 $afarmers and farming. 610 $afarmers. 610 $afarms and farmers. 610 $afood and ag. 610 $afood studies. 610 $afood sustainability. 610 $afood systems. 610 $afood writing. 610 $ahidden workforce. 610 $ahistorical development. 610 $ahistorical roots. 610 $ahuman trafficking. 610 $alabor industrial relations. 610 $alabor. 610 $alatino workers. 610 $alocal food. 610 $alocal. 610 $apolitical ecology. 610 $asmall farms. 610 $asocial justice. 610 $asustainable agriculture. 610 $asustainable food. 610 $asustenance. 610 $aworkers. 610 $aworking class. 610 $aworking conditions. 615 0$aAgricultural laborers$xAbuse of 615 0$aAgricultural laborers$xEmployment 615 0$aLabor policy 676 $a331.2/97473 700 $aGray$b Margaret$f1968-$01497364 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910790539603321 996 $aLabor and the locavore$93722446 997 $aUNINA
