This is one of those things that is probably always going to be anecdotal. Some people will definitely know people who have done the harvesting themselves, and because of the fact that the alternative is illegal, we'll likely never be able to get accurate data on the prevalence of illegal immigrants doing the harvesting.

Oh yes it's absolutely an anecdote. I simply needed to refute a generalization. Every rule has its exceptions.
