  • The farm fields of their Laotian homeland are thousands of miles distant, but many Hmong immigrants are finding new agricultural opportunities here in the U.S. Many are settling and starting farms in Minnesota. Success in American farming requires different skills, and that's why a unique training program is proving invaluable.

    Glad to see my once little Vince grew up to be a fine young man and even a farmer. Yij Tub and Paj Huab, nice to see you and the family along with my mother in law briefly here as well.

    I used to know this Hmong kid that drove a Gran Torino that was given to him by a Korean war veteran. He actually lived in Minnesota too.

    I am a Cambodian and i love Hmong people !! Hmong are good people,they are productive members of our community.They dont come to America to destroy things,they're here to contribute to America greatness.Hmong people are not here to fly passenger planes into WTC like that of 9/11 !! These are peaceful people and we need more of them !!!

    Thank you to the Hmong American farmers for making organic vegetables accessible and affordable to Minnesotans.

    thank you hmong for organic vegetables, my mom use to farm and i would help out when i can, its hard work, people that hasn't experience it will probably not know, work hard to grow it and prep it for sale for cheap so people can enjoy it.

    There are alot of Hmong in Minnesota and in California, The difference though is that in Minnesota we stay together in neighborhoods while in California Hmong are more spread out and that is why they are so rare besides Fresno.

    I've lived in Merced and Fresno much of my life. You'll always see Minnesota plates in those cities driven by Hmong. Guess they go back and forth between there and California quite a lot. In this area they have lots of truck farms raising fruits and vegetables for farmer's markets. They raise a lot of strawberries - probably more than anything else.
