This week we’re returning to Virginia’s Eastern Shore with Virginia Folklife Director Katy Clune. She explores how newcomers to the Shore are adopting and adapting traditional foodways. From gorditas and Haitian plantains to oysters and fresh jams, we get a closer look at the Eastern Shore’s vibrant food culture.
Later in the show: Daniel Morales digs into the history of Mexican migrant labor in the American food system. And: Tanya Golash-Boza explores the importance of immigrant labor on farms, in production facilities, and in restaurants across the country.
