summer work
the main issue that has come up with finding adaquate farm labor is that one can't do this year-round and support oneself (and a family).
to find this work force, how about looking for people who 1) have other things to do durning the time of the year when plants aren't growing or being harvested and 2) don't really need to support themselves or a family. or in short: students, and espcially college students.
the Farm For America idea is good. but instead of tageting post-graduates, why not target pre-graduates -- people who will be working minnimum wage jobs which are far less rewarding than farm work is anyway.On To create a truly sustainable food system, we'll have to confront the farm-labor crisis posted 1 year, 5 months ago 14 Responses
