How does one become involved in "the business"

Hello. I'm a college student in a red state about to graduate in a year. Problem is, there is only one thing I want to do: grow/trim/process

Anyway, this ain't Norcal or Oregon or Colorado. I don't have the contacts necessary to just go work on a farm. Growers here watch their ass and don't want any help.

I'd like to move out west and get started on a farm, but I have no idea how to do it.

Any help? Suggestions on landing a job at a growhouse/farm? Even trim work would be better than working in an office after college.

Help a brother out. I'm very knowledgeable on the subject, hard working, and am ready to do whatever I can to prove I'm not 5-0.

My mouth is tighter than your sister's p*ssy

Are these the lyrics to some hip hop jams? Haha I'm not an urban music connoisseur.

there is really no pot growning farms. its still illegal on the federal level. perhaps you should get your farm on a smaller scale at home.

I'm not a materialistic person; it's not about the money. I'm just one guy with no family to support and no intention of ever repaying student loans (take that, Uncle Sam/Citigroup). Also, because SWIM may or may not be a convicted felon and because SWIM's appearance is not "professional", SWIM will likely never be able to work in a legitimate job (thanks for the permanent second class citizen status, U.S. government/society).
Due to awesome U.S. laws, SWIM can be a day laborer, work in construction, or be a mechanic. Sweet.

As per the farm status, I'm sure there aren't many, but I'm positive they are out there. SWIM knows OF a person who travels to farms in Oregon and Idaho and sells on the festival circuit for a full time job. SWIM's seen the product; it was literally the best outdoor SWIM's ever came into contact with.

Owning a house isn't really within my grasp. I'm about to graduate college.

Sure, I could rent a house or even guerilla grow, but owning the property is much more secure. Besides, renting a house implies roommates, which I am not comfortable with being around a grow. And, a single apartment is a terrible place to grow.

I know how to grow and process, I just don't have the infrastructure.

It's a sad fact that landlords do shady shit on the regular and even though I know my rights as a renter, landlords seldom follow and usually have the police backing them up.

Any suggestions as to getting started with trim/grow/processing? I'm sure I could go to Arcata or Eureka or something in mid August and start asking around, but I'd really like to avoid a long and expensive trip to NorCal for a job that probably won't be there.

Growing in a dorm: you might as well grow at the police station

Apartment growing: possible yet still very unsecure

Running my own grow is not possible at this juncture. Which is why I want a job with someone else's operation.
