Ryan Atwood, a farmer in Mount Dora, Florida, is struggling to run his farm that produces blueberries and strawberries. He needs over 100 workers, but finding local help has been challenging. To address this, he's turned to the H-2A visa program to hire workers from other countries, which is very costly—around $250,000 each year for travel, food, housing, and other expenses.

The shortage of workers is causing some farms to miss big orders, leading to cancellations from companies. It's becoming increasingly difficult due to recent deportations, prompting many families to move away and leaving even fewer workers available.
