Liset Garcia grew up helping her folks sell freshly grown produce from the San Joaquin Valley in Los Angeles neighborhoods and dreamed of becoming a doctor.
Somehow, along the way, the medical student found herself running a stand at her parent’s Reedley farm and becoming a social media hit.
She still wants to become a doctor but, for now, agriculture has a hold on her heart.
Find out why in the second video in our Rooted in the Valley series that digs into small farmers and the challenges they face.
