hey y'all ~

first of all, apologies if this has already been asked and/or posted - i tried searching for a similar query, but didn't come up with much. perhaps i'll try again later?

anyways... this isn't necessarily about farming ABROAD, persay (as i can actually find a lot more farm opps. in places like britain, australia, NZ, and the like than i can in the U.$... which is [unfortunately] where i'm from)... has anyone gotten PAYING gigs doing harvest work in the states? if so, where the hell did you find it? was it a personal connection, or... what? i'm sure that there are farms out there in need of harvesters; the mexicans can pick all they want (no disrespect to MX - i'm headed there in june!), but if you're a U.S. citizen, how do you go about finding these types of things? i've perused the internet pretty extensively...

anythings helps. mahalo (thank you) in advance.

namaste, blessed b,
