The Changing Faces of California Agriculture -California Matters

California's Central Valley is home to the nation's largest Hmong farming community. Mark meets with UC Berkeley's Jennifer Sowerwine, who studies the cultural and ethnic dimensions of food security among Hmong farmers. Together, they discuss the challenges facing these micro-farmers, and pick up produce at a Hmong stall at the Berkeley Farmers Market.
