Towns and crops

To find local harvest information you can search using towns or crops as your base criteria. You might use this search when planning your travel itinerary to find out what kind of work is available in particular regions and when the best time to find work is.

Alternatively if there is a particular kind of work you wish to do, you can find where and when that work is available.

  1. Use the map or associated state/territory list to select the state or territory that you are interested in. Three lists will display below the map: towns, crops and months.
  2. Each item on the towns and crops lists is a link to further details. When you select a link you will find more links to related information.

To search by months:

  1. Select the months of the year by checking the boxes on the list and selecting the Go button at the end of the list.
  2. Follow the links for information about the crops and towns, and to find the type of harvest jobs available in that region during that time of year.
