| Farmworkers in California produce a third of the United States’ vegetables and nearly two-thirds of our fruits and nuts. These agricultural workers are our neighbors, and they are essential to our food system. Yet we hardly get to meet them, and many of us have a limited understanding of what farm work looks like. As we approach National Farmworker Awareness Week (March 25-31), we’re sharing a few stories from dedicated, talented individuals who work at Ferry Plaza Farmers Market farms, sowing, growing, and harvesting our food.
Hear from Luis (Frog Hollow Farm), Maclovio (Green Thumb Farms), and Pablo (Tierra Vegetables) about what their day-to-day on the farm looks like, what they find rewarding about growing food, and what they wish the rest of us understood about the work they do. |
