Where do the latinos go to find a job working with landscaping companies?

I have a bs, I can speak enough espanol, and I'm wanting to get down in the dirt with them, too. Heck, I can pick up some new spanish words, get a work out, and get some sun as well. (of course just for the summer).

Any help would be great! thanks.

I think they go to landscaping companies to find a job working with landscaping companies, but that's just a guess.

I am 100% certain they don't go to TWW.

scoobymd, ignore the sassy folks. A lot of landscaping businesses are informal, and they get jobs through one another.

If I were you, I might contact a "landscaping company."

But you could also just walk up to a crew and ask if the foreman/big boss is around. Then talk to him.

landscaping companies, or informal "day laborer" sites

Back in 1997 a college student could pull $13+ an hour doing landscaping in Raleigh. Good luck getting $9 now.

Of course, prices haven't dropped, the population is growing, and labor is cheap; so it's a great time if you just want to learn the field and hire a bunch of cheap labor to start your own company.

I never had a problem getting some landscaping work on the side if I wanted it, b/c I always had friends in the landscaping business.

I thought going to google and searching for "trabajo en Raleigh" but i got nada.

I figured the best way is to contact the companies directly, but I wasn't sure if there was some kind of agency. Thanks for the help.
