Chasing the Harvest – June 15, 2017

What is the life of a California farmworker really like? A new book provides answer, in their own words.

California‘s agricultural bounty feeds millions, but much of that is made possible by legions of little-seen farmworkers. A new collection of oral histories lets them tell their own stories.

Gabriel Thompson will talk about his book, chasing the Harvest, at Copperfield’s Books in Sebastopol, Saturday night at 7 pm. You can also hear more from him on the North Bay Report webpage at KRCB dot org/news.
