Family Story:

Arbulfo and Eucebia are originally from Oaxaca, but they moved to Ensenada ten years ago. They came with nothing, their 6 children, and looking for work. Arbulfo found work in the fields. Their children would stay home while Arbulfo and Eucebia went to work. In this way they were able to buy a small piece of land on credit. They currently live on their land with their two youngest children. The eldest are married and live elsewhere. Arbulfo continues to work in the fields and earns approximately $8 a day working from 7am to 4pm every day. They live in a small house made from tarps and pallets. Eucebia now spends her time caring for the children at home. Arbulfo's salary doesn't give them enough to do better for his family.
