Lots of pictures. There is a huge--and I mean huge--glassed-in tomato farm--completely out of commission. Why? The article says they can't find enough workers. A picture of that is in the article.

Many years ago, I was paid to visit certain greenhouse operations around the country. This is one of the tomato farms I visited. It's incredible how huge this place is. Because there are hail storms in this part of the country, they have a technology that disrupts the formation of the hailstone. They showed it to me. It's kind of like a rocket type operation and when it goes off, makes a very loud sound.

At the time I visited, they had a manager from The Netherlands running this operation. He was very cordial and spent time showing me around the facility. If I recall, it employed around 70 people.
