This unpretentious house was the home of Cesar Chavez and his wife Helen. When the Chavez family moved here in 1971, the oldest of their eight children had already moved out, but their younger children were raised here. Cesar lived here with Helen until he died in 1993, and Helen remained here until her death in 2016. The house is kept exactly as it was when Helen died, with a child’s drawing of a fish held to the refrigerator with a magnet in the kitchen and bookcases holding a large collection of framed family photos in the living room. Its modesty and simplicity reflect the values of the Chavez family, and the home helps tell the history of the American farmworkers movement.
