This Thanksgiving, we pause to express our deepest gratitude to the farmers—the heartbeat of our communities and the stewards of our land. Your hard work, resilience, and dedication bring food to our tables and nurture our families.

From sunrise to sunset, through every season, you show us what it means to care for the earth and provide for others. Your efforts remind us of the true meaning of Thanksgiving: appreciating the hands that sow, nurture, and harvest the blessings we share.

Thank you for your unwavering commitment and for feeding the world, one harvest at a time. May this season bring you peace, joy, and well-deserved rest.
