Farming families know planting and harvest seasons can be stressful, as you work against the clock and Mother Nature. Eating healthy during these seasons is a challenge for many reasons, including lack of time, the issue of dining in a field and stress leading to less healthy eating patterns. This year has proven even more challenging, as planting season starts while we’re still managing a worldwide pandemic. Fueling your body properly is a great line of defense for managing the stress of it all.
