With both grandparents being dairy farmers I spent lots of time on farms.
Your posts say otherwise.
WTF do you know city boy ? Not much from what I've seen. Not only were both sets of grandparents and two uncles dairy farmers, I worked as a full time farm hand for two years right after high school.
Up at 5am every morning and all the kicks to the shins and cowsh$t ya can handle, especially slapped in your face by a tail. And they gotta be milked EVERY morning, weekends and holidays too.
I'd hazard a guess that Mexicans are doing most of the farm handing up there now.
A lot more Mexicans around than there should be. I know two big farms that have all Mexican's working there. That's just been in the last few years. I don't know where they find them all.
Got family that live in rural areas of NYS, I think I see more actual Mexican Mexicans up there than I do around here, 'cept on construction sites.
