These topics include pesticide awareness, sustainable landscaping practices, Worker Protection Standards, Climate Crisis and Community Health. This project has quickly become one of our most direct contacts with the Hispanic community. The show is fully in Spanish (although we have had guests who translated the interviews to the indigenous Central American language Maya mam) and it airs every Tuesday at 12 pm PST. Our Platicas Participativas have continued to gain traction through our partnerships with key direct-service organizations. Thanks to our Hispanic Staff our Farm Worker Education Project is reaching more underserved communities. We have included on most events live translation to Mesoamerican Maya mam language as well as built a strong network of work with community partners, members and volunteers.
