Farmworkers face long hours of arduous work exposed to dangerous pesticides and extreme weather. With a over a billion pounds of pesticides being use in the U.S. a long-sleeve shirt can help agricultural mitigate exposure to the extreme heat and dangerous chemicals. Therefore, we can help farmworkers be able to live a healthier and safer life while they harvest the food we consume.
