After their shift at a local mushroom farm one recent afternoon, two farmworkers, smudged with dirt and sawdust, trudged back to their rented rooms in Half Moon Bay.
The motel rooms are clean and safe and have been home for Vicente and Cornelio since shortly after a coworker opened fire at this farm and another nearby in January 2023. The men asked that we use only their first names for immigration concerns.
While the mass shooting claimed seven lives, it also shone a light on the terrible living conditions at the mushroom farms, which local officials decried as deplorable and heartbreaking and vowed to improve.
“There were four of us in the trailer,” says Vicente, 52, who has worked at the farm for three years. “We had nowhere to cook and no hot water. You endure it out of necessity. But it was not good, suffering in the cold like that.”
While these rooms, paid for by the county, have heat and access to a kitchen, Vicente says knowing he’ll have to move has added to his sense of vulnerability.
“Ever since the tragedy, we feel insecure. It affected us so much,” he says, adding that he wants a home where he can reunite with his wife and 7-year-old son. The family has been separated since the shooting because they couldn’t afford a place big enough to live together, he says.
That desire for a permanent place could be a reality by early next year. Half Moon Bay officials plan to break ground next month to erect nearly four dozen manufactured homes. The new development, known as Stone Pine Cove, will be built on a parcel of city land, less than a 10-minute walk from downtown Half Moon Bay. It’s geared toward low-income farmworkers, like Vicente and Cornelio, and the other families displaced from the mushroom farms.
Two other farmworker housing projects are also in the works in the area, though they’ll take longer. Together, they could create some 200 units, and make a modest dent in the acute shortage of affordable housing in coastal San Mateo County. The most recent survey available, from 2016, found the county needs at least 1,000 units of farmworker housing.
“I would be so happy to have a house like that,” says Cornelio, who still struggles with the trauma of the mass shooting, even after group therapy provided by a local community organization. “I’m so grateful to everyone who has extended a hand to us.”
‘We are in an emergency’
Last year, after the shooting, officials, including Gov. Gavin Newsom and Rep. Anna Eshoo, pledged to transform the tragedy into critically needed investments in decent farmworker housing. That’s a much more costly proposition here in the expensive Bay Area than in more rural parts of the state, and the sense of urgency continues.

“We are in an emergency,” Half Moon Bay Mayor Joaquín Jiménez says. “Families are still living crowded. They’re getting ready to move out of Half Moon Bay.”
Officials cobbled together the $16 million budget for Stone Pine Cove from a combination of federal, state and local sources, plus some philanthropic dollars.
County Supervisor Ray Mueller says ensuring good quality, affordable housing for farmworkers is not only the right thing to do, it’s important for the health of the county’s economy — where agriculture is a $100-million industry, with products ranging from flowers to Brussels sprouts to Half Moon Bay’s famous pumpkins.
“Agriculture is incredibly important,” Mueller says. “It provides food resilience to the region. … and then obviously there’s the economics of being able to go ahead and have that thriving industry there which provides good jobs.”
Officials estimate San Mateo County has as many as 2,000 farmworkers overall, mostly in the area locals refer to as the “Coastside.” Mueller says he’s working to make it easier for farmers to build quality housing on their farms.
Affordable housing in the works
The $1 million the San Mateo County Board of Supervisors committed to housing the 38 displaced mushroom farm workers for a year ran out this month, but Half Moon Bay and local foundations will cover a second year while Stone Pine Cove is built.
Other affordable housing projects are in the works, too, but they won’t be ready for several years. Half Moon Bay plans a 40-unit apartment building for farmworkers 55 and older. Meanwhile, the county is in the process of buying a former flower nursery where Mueller says 100 homes could be built and is eyeing two other locations.
“We are light years from where we were a year ago,” Mueller says. “But we haven’t crossed the finish line in terms of opening any of those housing sites. … So we can’t lose that momentum. The good news is, there’s no indication that we will.”
The shooting also prompted the county to create a new task force to inspect all on-farm housing in unincorporated areas to ensure it meets health and safety standards. County officials say of the roughly 50 farms they’ve visited that provide housing, they haven’t found egregious violations, but more than a quarter have been ordered to make fixes such as repairing unsafe wiring and ensuring a clean water supply.
‘That much more severe for farmworkers’
The agricultural region of coastside San Mateo County is just over a ridge from the heart of Silicon Valley, where high salaries and stock options have fueled ever-increasing housing costs.
Edward Flores, the faculty director at UC Merced’s Center for Community and Labor Center, says the acute housing crisis for farmworkers in San Mateo is simply a more extreme example of a statewide affordable housing problem confronting millions of workers who fill essential jobs but are paid little.
“Agricultural workers are among the lowest-earning occupations,” he says. “So as severe as the state’s housing crisis is for low-wage workers, it’s even that much more severe for farm workers.”
Sponsored
Most farmworkers in the Coastside earn little more than the minimum wage of $17.35/hour, Jiménez says, the Half Moon Bay mayor. But in San Mateo County, a living wage that covers the basics can be well over twice that, depending on how many children a worker supports.
“The fact is, we need help from the county,” says Vicente, the mushroom farm worker. “Because here in Half Moon Bay the rent is really high, and we don’t earn much.”
Sharing a home with 21 people
As the child of farmworkers himself, Jiménez knows what it’s like when low-wage workers have to crowd into housing. During his teenage years, he says, his family shared a three-bedroom, one-bathroom house with 21 people.
“The idea is to help them build wealth for their family,” he says. “We’re looking for opportunities to better the lives of our essential workers.”
On a recent visit to the future site of Stone Pine Cove, Jiménez extolled the fact that 28 of the homes will be available for purchase, using a state program of forgivable 20-year home loans geared toward agricultural workers with very low incomes.
“The farmworkers are going to get to own their modular home,” says Jiménez, who says home ownership is one more step toward stability.
The parcel sits just across a small creek from the California Terra Garden mushroom farm. When it’s developed, it will have a wildlife buffer along the creek, a walking trail and a playground for children.
Sitting on the porch of the guesthouse, Vicente says he can picture his son playing in a little park like that.
“We don’t need a fancy house,” he says. “Just a simple house with the basics, where we can be together as a family.”

Disclosure of investments and divestment from Israeli companies or companies that stand to profit from Israel’s war in Gaza and occupation of the West Bank have been among the most prominent demands from student organizers across the country.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Organizers at those universities responded by packing up and disbanding their encampments. That is not to say that they feel satisfied with their current gains. Students at most of those campuses have said that they see the encampments as merely the first phase in a longer, possibly years-long fight for full divestment from Israel, among other demands.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’re just kind of raising the bar on the floor,” said Palestinian Youth Movement member Rami Abdelkarim.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Palestinian Youth Movement has been behind several large pro-Palestinian protests in the Bay Area, and Abdelkarim said many of their members are also college students involved in the encampments.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“These universities should not be invested in weapons manufacture at all. These agreements rarely acknowledge Palestinians. They rarely acknowledge they’re in direct investment in Israel,” Abdelkarim said. “So when I see these statements and policies that are coming out based off of these encampments … I see them really as a way to put pressure on the entire system as a whole.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At other schools, including the University of San Francisco, Stanford and San José State University, students are still camping on campus, calling on their respective administrations to meet their demands.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The UC San Francisco camp met the stiffest resistance. University police removed tents at a student-run encampment on Monday evening, just hours after it formed, and cited one person, according to students involved. Police also returned Tuesday after organizers set up the encampment again. They convinced protesters to remove the tents, but the students stayed in the same place.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Saturday morning before 6 a.m., a university administrator approached the encampment warning protesters to clear out and police encircled the group 15 minutes later, according to Jess Ghannam, a professor of psychiatry and global health at UCSF who supports the student organizers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote align=\"right\" size=\"medium\" citation=\"Jess Ghannam, professor of psychiatry and global health sciences, UCSF School of Medicine\"]‘[W]e remain committed to all of our demands, and we’re not going to back down.’[/pullquote]“Over the past week, protesters engaged in property damage, theft, and other actions in the encampment, causing significant disruption to our university and health care operations, as well as distress for members of our faculty, staff, students and patients,” UCSF said in a statement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ghannam rejected the assertion that the encampment interfered with the university, saying protesters made changes to accommodate requests from city fire and police officials on multiple occasions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There was no disruption whatsoever to any functioning of the hospital.

Now, there’s an answer.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The affected portion of U.S. Highway 1 at Rocky Creek Bridge, around 17 miles south of Monterey, reopened to traffic early on Friday, May 17 — \u003ca href=\"https://www.gov.ca.gov/2024/05/03/highway-1-targeted-to-reopen-by-may-25-as-governor-takes-action-to-support-repairs-in-topanga-canyon-and-other-communities-damaged-by-storms/\">eight days earlier than previously announced\u003c/a> — to allow 24/7 traffic south into Big Sur again. For the last two months, residents and visitors have only been allowed in and out of the region twice a day in convoys, using the still-intact northbound lane.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Rocky Creek closure came on the heels of \u003cem>another \u003c/em>Highway 1 closure further south around the town of Lucia — a longer stretch of the coastal highway closed by a similar rockslide over a year ago. But while that Lucia closure remains in place, Friday’s reopening means Bay Area residents can once again access Big Sur from the north.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If you’ve been eagerly awaiting this Highway 1 reopening and want to plan a long-delayed trip to Big Sur this summer, there are several things that prospective visitors to the region should know.

And because it’s an entirely separate reopening operation to the Rocky Creek “slip-out” to the north, this southern stretch will remain closed after Friday even as that other part of Highway 1 reopens.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As of this week, there’s still no firm date for the Lucia highway closure to reopen, although \u003ca href=\"https://www.latimes.com/california/story/2024-05-14/highway-1-in-big-sur-to-reopen\">Caltrans said they hope to open this stretch of Highway 1 sometime this summer\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11986500\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11986500\" src=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/05/big-sur.png\" alt=\"A blue and green toned map of the California Central Coast showing the closures along Highway 1.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1409\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/05/big-sur.png 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/05/big-sur-800x587.png 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/05/big-sur-1020x749.png 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/05/big-sur-160x117.png 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/05/big-sur-1536x1127.png 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">What the closure along this stretch of Highway 1 through Big Sur has looked like since March 30 (as seen before Friday’s reopening at Rocky Creek.) \u003ccite>(Courtesy CalTrans)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>That means until that reopening at Lucia occurs, there is simply no way to drive from the Bay Area on Highway 1 through Big Sur to the Central Coast and Southern California.
