Seasonal Workers
Our people travelled up and down the Coast picking peas, beans, pumpkins, corn and millet. We worked hard, had financial independence and enjoyed socialising. Although we were subject to racism from certain farmers, we hold joy in these memories.
Seasonal workers were labourers for animals and produce.
You'd go for it. Two for the bag, a clump for the bag.
