A Visit to Noda Farm

Noda Farm is a Christmas tree farm in Meriden. It's owned by two Japanese-American Quakers, Lafayette and Mayme Noda. They grew up in Central California and were put in internment camps during World War II. Afterward, Lafayette became a prominent medical researcher, and Mayme an anti-war activist. Now in retirement, they grow Christmas trees. They sell the trees on the honor system. Cut your tree and leave the money in a box. We talk about their varied, unique lives.
