Agriculture

Overview

Jobs in farming were familiar and usually easy to find as a large percentage of the newcomers had worked in agriculture of some sort in Italy since childhood. Although the wages were low and the manual labor exhausting, workers took comfort in being able to speak their own language and share similar traditions with other Italian immigrants in the fields.
