With 75% of farm workers failing to show up for their shifts in the middle of citrus season, and tariffs about to hit foreign produce, it would be wise to stock up on frozen, dried, canned, jarred, and fresh produce now, before prices go up and availability goes down. My family is stocking up on the items we use the most to try to hedge against the inevitable inflation.
