Growing up in South Florida and northern Virginia, I am quite familiar with migrant labor. We had migrant workers in Palm Beach County during the cane sugar harvest and we had migrant workers in the Shenandoah Valley during the apple harvest. Since the harvests occurred at different times (and you had other labor-intensive harvests like strawberries), migrant workers would, y'know, migrate. And after the harvest season, they would return home, enriching their otherwise poor communities.
My family primarily grows corn in north Florida, which does not depend on migrant labor.
Seasonal migrant workers are a different kettle of fish from the illegals the Dems want in for what they think will be dependable votes and various business interests want in for the cheap long-term labor.
