Under the FLSA, the planting of trees and bushes is within the scope of agriculture where it constitutes a step in the production, cultivation, growing, and harvesting of agricultural or horticultural commodities, or where it constitutes a practice performed by a farmer or on a farm as an incident to or in conjunction with farming operations. Thus, employees of the nurseryman who raised such nursery stock are doing agricultural work where they plant the stock on private or public property, trim, spray, brace, and treat the planted stock, or perform other duties incidental to its care and preservation. Accordingly, nursery workers may, from time to time, travel offsite to perform the above-described duties which are incidental to the cultivation and harvest of trees, such as installation of the trees which they cultivate at the worksite.
