I live in a small town in the desert southwest. For much of the year a lot of our produce comes from Mexico, Peru and Chile. Except for late spring and early summer, almost all the blueberries and strawberries come from Mexico and South America. It is amazing to me how much of our produce travels so far, and that these things are available year round. I'm sure the labor costs are much lower in those countries, but still...the transportation?
