1. Fresh and Nutritious Food: Farmworkers have fresh food. They cultivate their own fruits, veggies, and herbs, making their meals healthier and free of preservatives, pesticides, and other toxins. ​

2. Physical Activity: Farming requires physical activity. Tilting, planting, weeding, harvesting, picking fragile plants, and cleaning give farmers and farmworkers exercise. This physical activity can help maintain a healthy weight and lower the risk of heart disease and diabetes. ​​

3. Nature Connection: Farming allows for nature connection. Urbanites rarely breathe fresh air or experience nature's splendor. Farm life improves mental health by allowing people to spend time outdoors and interact with nature. 

​ 4. Reduced Stress: Farming and living on a farm might be hard, but it also provides fulfillment. Living in nature, away from the city, can alleviate stress and promote tranquillity. Farming provides fresh, healthy food, physical activity, nature, and stress reduction, making it a healthier and more meaningful lifestyle.
