Caption: Another nearby Guasti Marker
Additional Description: Standing here in 1904, you would see the Guasti Stone Cellar to the south. Many of these workers were migrant and lived in a tent city south of the railroad tracks at Turner Avenue. During World War II, Italian prisoners of war worked in the fields and were welcomed by the village residents as secured through the Bracero program. Wages were a jug of wine a week, and company scrip redeemable at the company store.
