Visit the Website above for more information! PLEASE SIGN OUR PETITION. FARMERS ARE DEPENDING ON YOU! PROTECT YOUR FOOD AND PLANTS!

Agriculture is the foundation and lifeline of our Country in the USA! Without farmers our food would not exist, plants for your yard and highways, materials for building, milk, and more. Right now, we are faced with the challenge of finding employees as the job is hard work in the full sun. We have the option to bring Legal- non-immigrant guestworkers from many countries to our country seasonally and temporarily. We agree with building the wall, secure borders and allowing people in legally. This is just that! The land is Agricultural and we have a program called H2A Guestworkers and Housing so we can provide amenities to the Guestworkers while they are here. We pay over minimum wage in FL by $3/hour starting at $11.24 per hour. Also, providing transportation to and from country of origin, locally to and from work, trips to stores, and more, kitchens, washer dryers, electric, water, AC, recreational rooms, TVs, computer room, internet in each room, and all the state, local and federal requirements will be met! People need to know this issue and how important this is for Agriculture to stay in the USA. Locally the people are trying to stop this housing from happening due to crime fears and property values dropping. This is not the case. Data proved this does not happen. Help us keep Agriculture in our great Country!! Please Sign for your future of good products as we want this to stay in Amercia to protect our quality and practices! We are People trying to make a living and provide for our families the right way! 

Racial, Bigotry is not OK in this Country! 

Please read and watch as we need your help!!! Please sign ASAP!

H-2A PROGRAM
Agricultural work includes some of the toughest and most important jobs in the world. The H-2A program 
provides a way to link capable, reliable and legal labor to agricultural employers in need. H-2A workers 
​typically return to the same employer year after year, providing essential help nationwide.

agricultural employers with a seasonal labor need.

Our clients represent a broad spectrum of the agricultural industry from small, family farms to large, corporate producers including: Grain, wheat, sugarcane, and other row crop growers, Fruit and vegetable growers, Orchards and vineyards, Organic and specialty agricultural businesses, Wholesale nurseries and horticultural operations, Christmas tree farms, Aquaculture (crawfish, catfish harvesting), Farm labor contractors providing agricultural services, Cotton gins, Livestock operations, Agricultural and horticultural associations
