Title: Watermelon Harvest
Caption: Wicomico County, Maryland August, 2015 Migrant workers harvesting watermelons on Maryland's Eastern Shore. School buses are hollowed out and filled with watermelon for transport. These workers are part of the East Coast Migrant Stream, a migration pattern that has workers picking crops from state to state. The East Coast Stream generally begins in Florida and travels up to Ohio, New York and Maine.
