Last\nyear, as a Field intern, Alli worked directly with farmworkers in the process\nof surveying, excavating and creating household gardens. This year as a returning\nfellow, Alli will be initiating new interns and helping with specialty work\nthroughout the planning and planting process. As a Community Development major\nat UVM with a strong Spanish ability, Alli was immediately interested in this\nproject when she first learned of it in a class she took with Professor Dan\nBaker. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Alli says that working with Huertas has allowed her to form\na sense of independence and trust her own actions in the workforce setting,\nespecially working with migrant farmworkers in rural Vermont. In addition, she\ncredits the Huertas project with her highly increased communication skills in\ngeneral and, more importantly, in a non-native language. The entire experience\nthus far has provided her with what she calls an \u201cinsight into things outside\nof yourself\u201d\u2014i.e. a whole-systems way of thinking that highlights\ncross-cultural skills. In the future, Alli hopes to continue working with\nmigrant populations and food systems in a hands-on manner in Vermont or in\nOaxaca, Mexico. She has also expressed interest in traveling to India both as a\nyoga instructor and in order to work with permaculture there. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When asked what advice she would give to new interns, Alli said that her biggest takeaway was to invest in the migrant workers themselves; whatever involvement you have, gain contextual information about the people you are working with in order to form relationships and be educated about what is going on in the Vermont community, as well as the US at large (in which immigration is a highly stigmatized topic). Alli says that Huertas has created a sense of family and belonging in a Vermont community that is, in many ways, hidden and disadvantaged. She is looking forward to working with Huertas as she enters into her last semester at UVM!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/huertas\/files\/2019\/02\/IMG_2546.JPG-768x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-254\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/huertas\/files\/2019\/02\/IMG_2546.JPG.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/huertas\/files\/2019\/02\/IMG_2546.JPG-225x300.jpeg 225w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>************************************************************************<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">\u00a1Hola de nuevo,\nAlli!<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>\u00a1Alli regresa\ncomo una becaria de Huertas por su segundo a\u00f1o! El a\u00f1o pasado, como una becaria\nde campo, Alli trabaj\u00f3 directamente con los trabajadores migrantes en el\nproceso de agrimensura, excavaci\u00f3n y plantaci\u00f3n de los jardines de hogar. Este\na\u00f1o como una becaria de regreso, Alli iniciar\u00e1 nuevos becarios y ayudar\u00e1 con el\ntrabajo especializado a trav\u00e9s del proceso de planificaci\u00f3n y plantaci\u00f3n. Como\nuna estudiante del desarrollo comunitario en UVM con una habilidad fuerte de\nhablar espa\u00f1ol, inmediatamente Alli fue interesado en este proyecto cuando\naprendi\u00f3 sobre ello en una clase ella tom\u00f3 con Profesor Dan Baker. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Alli dice que\ntrabajar con Huertas el ha permitido formar un sentido de independencia y\nconfianza de sus propias acciones en el entorno laboral, especialmente trabajar\ncon los trabajadores migrantes en Vermont rural. Adem\u00e1s ella atribuye al\nproyecto Huertas con sus habilidades de comunicaci\u00f3n en general y, lo que es\nm\u00e1s importante, en un idioma que no es nativo. Toda la experiencia hasta ahora\nle ha proporcionado lo que ella describe como una \u201cpercepci\u00f3n de cosas fuera de\ns\u00ed mismo\u201d\u2014es decir una forma de pensar de los sistemas enteros que destaca las\nhabilidades transculturales. En el futuro, Alli desea continuar trabajando con\npoblaciones de inmigrantes y con sistemas alimentarios en una manera pr\u00e1ctica\nen Vermont o en Oaxaca, M\u00e9xico. Tambi\u00e9n ella ha expresado un inter\u00e9s en\nviajando a India como una instructora de yoga y para trabajar con la\npermacultura all\u00ed. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cuando preguntado qu\u00e9 consejo ella dar\u00eda a nuevos becarios, Alli dijo que su mayor consejo fue invertir en los trabajadores migrantes sus mismos; cualquier participaci\u00f3n que tenga, obt\u00e9n informaci\u00f3n contextual sobre los trabajadores con los que se est\u00e1 trabajando con el fin de formar relaciones y ser educados sobre lo que est\u00e1 sucediendo en la comunidad de Vermont, as\u00ed como los EEUU (en el que la inmigraci\u00f3n es un altamente estigmatizado tema). Alli dice que Huertas ha creado un sentido de familia y pertenencia en una comunidad en Vermont que es, en muchas maneras, oculta y desfavorecida. \u00a1Ella est\u00e1 emocionada trabajar con Huertas como ella completa su semestre final a UVM!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hello again, Alli!
