Image title	Curly kale sold by Fresno Family Farm shareholder and individual producer Keng Xiong a family farm in California’s central valley agriculture region that sells produce in several farmers’ markets, such as this Pacific Coast Farmers' Market Association location, at Jack London Square, in Oakland, CA., on Sunday, Feb. 23, 2014.This day starts 150 miles away at 4:30 AM to begin setup at 7AM each Sunday. After doing this for eight years, he says,“You get used to it.” But, there are rewards, “…coming over here, you’re seeing your stuff able to sell pretty good. So that motivates you to keep doing it. I like what I’m doing.” Freshness is an important selling point, “Things that go bad faster, we usually cut them the day before we come to the farmer’s market, says Mr. Xiong. “Things that are able to last a little bit longer we usually do two or three days before. Nothing is longer than that, …so customers can have it fresh throughout the week.” In Fresno, the family have four growing seasons on the 27 acres theyown or lease. “We will have different things each season. He continues, “during the summer we are able to grow more, and we are able to offer more variety to the customer. In the winter we focus on the leafy greens.In Laos, to survive, you just grow your own stuff and feed your own family.” The Xiong family emigrated from the mountain region of Laos, to Thailand and then to the United States in 1991. “Coming over here; I think it was well worth it. I think we have accomplished more than we (would) ever have, if we were to stay in Laos.”He accepts SNAP (Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program) benefits, and says,“EBT (Electronic Benefits Transfer card) users end up getting more with the use of the EBT card. It’s a big advantage for us too. It gives low-income families a chance to come to the farmer’s market… to buy vegetables and fruits for the family. The real benefit is that the quality and tasteis much better. A farmer’s market is a one-stop shop for customers.” USDA Photo by Lance Cheung.
