As the winter ag season continues in Yuma County, local fields are filled with workers, visible from early in the morning until late in the evening.
Their days are long and the work is physical, but these men and women are vital to the region’s $3.2 billion annual ag industry.
For 25 years, Campesinos Sin Fronteras has organized on a December night to connect some of these workers with local services like health care and immigration help. But organizers say the annual Dia Del Campesino event in San Luis is really designed as a way to thank this hard-working population.
