Young men keep their bicycles chained to a tree while they're out working during the day, in a camp set up by migrant indigenous workers from the Mexican state of Oaxaca, who live under tarps next to a field of wine grapes. The workers are Chatinos who labor on grape ranches in Sonoma County, one of the wealthiest wine-producing areas of the US.
