We are currently in training to be jack of all trades. So far we have:
1. Pick Tomatoes in Taupo.
2. Worked in a crop change in Taupo.
3. Helped install a piped
plant warming system for a glass house in Taupo.
4. Cleared a strawberry field in Napier.
5. Installed the above ground components of a sprinkler system in Napier.
6. Mulched and buried onions to help fertilize a field.
I think tomorrow we are back to pounding pipes to install more sprinklers at Gourmet Blueberry. We have done so well they want us to start full time in November to be supervisors. However this would require us to sign a contract until March which we don't want to do because we will hopefully be in Australia where the minimum wage is 15 an hour. Americans are really behind the times on minimum wages. Check some of the new pictures from a hike we did last weekend. We have still yet to wake up early enough and drive to Gisbourne to be the first to see the sun (doesn't really excite me but Bobby and Davis really want to). However we have budgeted our excursions and these two will be in the month of October.
