That is believable, that a few thought they would be needed to harvest. But have they always needed to self-transport (walk) all the way up here in past years too? I would think harvesters would be transported by bus, round trip and with places to sleep, however spartan. I would expect the travel expenses to be paid by that corporate farmer. I could be completely wrong.
I said someone TOLD them we needed harvesters. These people are from Honduras. They haven’t practiced like the Mexicans.
And putting them on buses would show someone paid for it.
