There is a great Facebook page called Faces of the Drought. This week they featured a farmer from Kerman.
I have been farming here since 1981. My wife’s family has been here for 100 years. We own land here and are invested in the community. Farming isn’t portable. I love California but I hate seeing what we are doing to her. Something most non-farmers don’t understand is that we’re making plans now for next summer’s crop and we have to roll the dice on the water situation. The people who buy my crops don’t care about the uncertainty; I take on all the risk as a grower.#mydroughtstory
