Synopsis
A group of non-profits are working to increase the number of minority-led sustainable farming businesses in Oregon. Latino residents make up over 12 percent of the state's population. Yet only 3% of the state’s total of farms are owned by people of color. We talk with Marissa Zarate, Executive Director of Huerto de la Familia, about why she thinks the collective’s work is important.
