Could you clarify where you're getting these listings from?

I took a job through workamper. Myself and a friend freighthopped out to Fargo MD fall of 2015 for the sugar beet harvest. They would not pay for our campsite because we did not have a camper. We took care of ourselves and thejob was not as long as they said it would be. They did pay a nice cash bonus for staying the whole season and not missing work.

@Phranque Trayne did they let you get the job and just tent camp? I signed up a few years ago when it wasn't free and I owned a van and they sent me a book. I'm a young single guy and I think most listings were for couples. But if as Phranque says I may look back into it.

Yes, we were able to work and take care of ourselves. We just were not able to avail ourselves of the free campsites they had reserved. Beet harvest starts reserving workers in JANUARY! And it turned out that express professionals a temp agency did all the paperwork for these jobs. The two largest sugar beet cooperatives are based in Fargo ND and Sydney Wyoming. American Crystal Sugar and Sydney Sugar respectively.

Here is the chill to these jobs, although they have long hired transient workers , including tramps, all these sugar beets are GMO. So, there's that.

That is all I know about workamper...
