Join us in closing out the celebration of Day of the Dead in Oaxaca in the Ocotlán Valley. Here we visit a traditional mezcal community and a farming community who extend their celebrations one extra day than most other communities in Oaxaca. We visit a graveyard in a community where the majority of flowers (marigolds and coxcomb) are grown for use in altars and graves during the three days of todos santos. This community honors their loved ones by decorating the graves of loved ones with elaborate flower carpets.
