HALF MOON BAY, Calif. — Less than a week after seven people were killed in a mass shooting at two mushroom farms in Half Moon Bay, agricultural workers returned to work at the sites where their colleagues and neighbors were gunned down.
Workers began going back to Concord Farms last week, said Aaron Tung, whose family owns the farm. At California Terra Garden, operations resumed Saturday and it was fully staffed by Wednesday, said David Oates, a representative for the company.
“The employees wanted to go back to work,” Oates, a crisis public relations expert hired by California Terra Garden, told the Los Angeles Times. “We said whenever you’re ready to come back to work, as you’re comfortable, we’ll accommodate.”
