Work Feature: Semillas y Raices
Visalia, California is home to many immigrant farmworkers who contribute to the backbone of U.S. agriculture. It is a desirable location where laborers can settle in with their families; however, the community lacks economic resources and is culturally, linguistically, and geographically isolated.
Translated to “Seeds and Roots,” Semillas y Raices welcomes farmworkers and their families into a vibrant neighborhood where they can build their foundation securely, independently, and sustainably for future generations. The result is a standard for future developments and a positive influence on the region through public art, public spaces, energy conservation, and native landscaping.
