33 A zucchini field outside Fairfield
Jaime Merino, an indigenous Triqui farm worker from Lazaro Cardenas, Oaxaca, lives in an apartment in Fairfield. There is almost no furniture, because he and his roommates make very low wages, and have to send money home to families in Mexico. He picks zucchini on a farm just outside of Fairfield.
