"Esperanza" shares, "Today we started planting broccoli at 3am. Planting is one of the most exhausting jobs, we must start early and we spend our work hours bent over, making sure we're planting the seedlings properly. Sometimes I get dizzy from bending over so much." #WeFeedYou

"Jorge" is an irrigator in Kern county's carrot fields. "It was 99° this day. Our work is very difficult. We need to move and place these heavy pipe systems so we can make sure to maintain the necessary moisture levels. Too much or too little could hurt the crop." #WeFeedYou

Lorenzo Salgado Araujo literally helped build this nation. He did nothing wrong but build American homes, raise American kids, and pursue the American Dream. He should be alive. Across our country, our government is killing our immigrant friends, neighbors, relatives, and fellow workers. The UFW demands justice for Lorenzo and respect, safety and dignity for all immigrant workers.

It was 88°at 1pm as farmworkers harvested peppers in Arvin CA. It's hard work as the plants grow close to the ground so workers need to bend over for long periods. With the current heat, workers begin at first light and keep a steady pace until the day’s quota is done. #WeFeedYou
