Indiantown and Fellsmere, Florida








During my stay in Florida, we visited many small towns, some of them quite far off the main roads. This is me in Indiantown outside a cafe selling Mexican food, that is run by a Palestinian who married a Chinese. Indiantown has many Mexican laborers who work in the citrus farms there. In the top picture you can see these Mexican laborers. Some of these towns are pretty poverty-stricken. I wonder how the 'Beauty Salon' in Fellsmere in the picture above looks like inside.
At restaurant in Fellsmere called the Marsh Landing, we had this delicous deep-fried duck with black-eyed peas and collard greens, food that is typical of Central Florida.
