Corn Detasseling?

My 13 year old son is in desperate need of learning the meaning of hard labor. He thinks everything should be given to him without any concern for money or anything. So this summer I told him that he's going to be getting a job. We live in Omaha, NE. Anyone know who or were I should contact to see about him detasseling corn this summer? Any info would be great. Thanks!!

    I still see ads for detasseling but not many kids want to spend their summer in a corn field,hot,sweaty,full of bug bites and cuts for the amount of money that is offered.

    Watch the classifieds in the local paper..... and tell him this:

    If you do things right and work hard in school, corn detasseling will be the WORST job you ever have.... best to get it out of the way now.

    Best of luck to you.

    Source(s): Around here the farmers advertise in the local paper.... I did it, and my daughter did it.... builds character.
