Vegetables
Rosa Salidas, 52, has lived in Pilsen for 28 years, selling fruits and vegetables with her husband. "Thanks to God, we can now eat, work, live," she says. She hopes her continued prayers will help pull her family of seven through the recession, and allow her daughter to continue classes at University of Illinois at Chicago. On a typical weekday, Salidas earns $40 from her produce-packed truck. Last year, she made more than twice that.
