Episode 13 – Season Finale

County agent Mark is warning Jake that since he doesn’t spray pesticides, he has to get the berries out of the field quickly. In desperation, Jake asks Fernando for a Sunday crew, which is not going to be cheap. At the farm, Delbert is managing u-pick. A young woman with two bratty kids shows up for a “picking experience”. She expresses delight for finding a place with healthy berries as she continuously sprays the children with bug repellant. At the market, Twink is put next to a Hans, a seller of artisanal sauerkraut specialties. A buyer balks at her high priced organic berries. Back from the battlefield at day’s end, parents and crew face a setting sun with glasses of sangria and reflect on the season. Each of them has grown. And Jake is finally beginning to understand what I means to be a farmer with a plot of land, his own Blue Acres.
