Hug a Farmer 

I went to Family Food Market in St. Lawrence market and talked to the owner Li Chunan Hsiung.  I asked her about her story, she said she has worked with produce for over 50 years and opened her first shop on front street. She opened up Family Food Market in 1999 and she has been in the market ever since.She did not really have much to say on political policies, but did say she does not like G.M.O.s.  She believes in buying only the best and freshest produce and trying to be as sustainable as possible. She says that she enjoys getting organic produce for her customers, but if they did not want it she probably would not be getting it in. From this experience I learned that fresh produce is the best kind, and that sustainability is not as easy to achieve as it should be.
