Michigan's signature cherry crop, among other agricultural state staples, depend heavily on thousands of migrant workers each year. Even after a killing frost destroyed much of the crop in 2012, a new report shows Michigan's migrant and seasonal farm population is growing.
Dr. Alice Larson, author of a study on Michigan's farm worker population, and Mollie Schairer, director of the Office of Migrant Affairs for the Michigan Department of Human Services, join Current State to discuss new findings and what the future holds.
