Will Travis of the Spence Farm in Fairbury, Illinois, gives a brief talk about the look of their fields.

At the Spence Farm, three locals support the work on the farm and manage the fields, doing everything from spraying biological products on crops, moving livestock, and pulling weeds, of course. We asked them if they noticed differences when they allowed weeds to grow, and they admitted they did, which is why they watched them closely. "Size of fruit, and quality are affected," Will Travis said.

In this field, they are growing brassicas, squash, celery, peppers, parsley, and potatoes, all sold into the Chicago restaurant market.
