DLM01859 Immigrant worker Isidro De Los Santos Andrede, 62, clears weeds from a field planted with dill weed on land cultivated by Grant Family Farms, which grows organic crops in Wellington, Colo. Wednesday, Aug. 30, 2006. One of the main reasons the field is overgrown is because there were not enough farm workers to properly clear the field after it was planted. Grant and many other Colorado farms say they are running short on workers because of new state immigration laws.
