Gavin Newsom’s Illegal Labor Problem

It’s 5 a.m. in Napa Valley and the field workers have been picking grapes for an hour. Floodlights illuminate the pitch darkness, bringing to life the vines running up and down the sloping hillside. Off in the distance, a tractor rumbles, pulling a small trailer filled with plastic buckets that will soon be filled with grapes. Spanish chatter fills the air as the workers’ hands move in quick, practiced motions. They work at night to escape the heat. It’s cold enough now that their breath is visible, hanging like smoke before dissipating in the predawn darkness.

You can cut down your own Christmas tree in CA for $20. Where to go near Fresno

Imagine hiking into a lush forest as the birds flit through the lofty evergreens. As you enter a sunny clearing, you spot your ideal Christmas tree: a perfectly formed fir. You can cut down your own holiday tree at a dozen national forests across California, including a couple near Fresno. According to federal government officials, controlled tree-cutting is allowed during the holidays to reduce overgrowth and fire risks. “For every tree that is found, cut and carried home as a holiday fixture, you’re also contributing to the overall forest health,” officials said on Recreation.gov. “Christmas tree permits are a unique opportunity to help thin densely populated stands of small-diameter trees — the perfect size for a Christmas tree.” It’s best to plan ahead, since permits go fast. Here’s what to know: Where can I cut down a Christmas tree in California? In California, a total of 12 national forests offer seasonal tree permits just in time for the holiday season. You can discover which forests offer tree permits by going to Recreation.gov and checking out the interactive map. You can also search by the forest name, location or state. Here’s where to go within a two-hour drive of Fresno: Sequoia
