🍐 Sacramento, this one is personal. Our farm-to-fork community isn’t just a slogan; it’s built on real families, real farms, and generations of growers who work year-round to put fresh, high-quality food on our tables. Right now, California pear farmers are facing serious pressure from rising imports that threaten their livelihoods and the future of local agriculture. This doesn’t just impact farmers; it affects our restaurants, our small businesses, our local economy, and the food culture Sacramento is known for. If you’ve ever shopped at a farmers market, ordered seasonal produce at a local restaurant, or proudly called Sacramento a farm-to-fork city, this is your moment to show up. 📣 Like, comment, and repost to spread the word 🏛️ Tag your representatives so they know you care. When our community speaks together, it makes a difference. Let’s stand with California pear farmers and protect the local food system we all rely on. #SacramentoFoodies #FarmToFork #SupportLocalFarms #CaliforniaPears #LocalAgriculture #EatLocal #SacramentoEats #FarmFresh #FoodieCommunity #SustainableFood #SupportLocalBusiness #LocalHarvest #SacramentoFarmers #CommunityFirst #FoodForChange

🍐 Sacramento, this is our moment to show up. Each summer, just as California pear growers begin their harvest, imported pears flood the market. This means local fruit gets pushed aside, and the family farms that have fed our region for generations are left struggling, during the time of year they need our support the most. This isn’t about asking for handouts. It’s about asking for fairness. Nearly 70% of imported pears hit the U.S. market at the same time our growers are ready to sell, making it harder for local farms to compete in their own backyard. So we’re calling on our community: 🍽️ Chefs & restaurant owners — choose local pears, feature them proudly, tell your diners where their food comes from 📸 Foodies & influencers — share the stories behind the fruit, not just the plate 📰 Local media & storytellers — help amplify the voices of Sacramento growers 🌱 Farm-to-fork businesses — stand with the farms that make this movement possible Supporting California agriculture doesn’t require more money — it requires attention, intention, and action. 👉 Repost this 👉 Start the conversation 👉 Stand with our growers Because farm-to-fork isn’t just a slogan — it’s a commitment to each other. 🍐🤍

It's time to put America first & support American farmers 🇺🇸

🚨 Want to put #AmericaFirst? Listen up👇 Imports are pushing CA pear farmers out of their own market. They're importing chemically treated pears at a low price and marking them up to U.S. customers. We need trade protections. Tag your rep. Put American farmers first. 🇺🇸

🚨 Pears treated with 1-MCP are flooding U.S. stores! Built for shelf life, not flavor, these imports push sweet, juicy California pears and local farmers out of the market. 👉 It’s time for common-sense trade protections. 👉 Tag your rep. 👉 Demand a seasonal quota or tariff.

We need your support!! @RepHuffman @RepThompson @RepBera @DorisMatsui @JoshHarder @J_GallagherAD3

Argentine pears are stored for months and hit U.S. shelves right before our local season — crowding out fresh, high-quality California fruit and undercutting our farmers. 🍐❌ It’s time for trade protections that support U.S. farmers and put America first! 🇺🇸
