i can get you a job fruit picking in canada, no problem, you might need a work visa though.

for europe, my friends that pick fruit say that denmark is real good, the danish crown is a real strong currency and you can pick apples in england, if you go in france around september you can do the wine season, and woofing can be okay, but it's not a way to make money, you get accomodation and get fed though.

PM me if you need more info, i got experience around 1 1/2 year picking all together, my best day is 410$AU and 360$ CA , picked cherries, apricots,prunes,apples,able grape, wine grape, tomatoes

if anything, dont do ground crop, you need to be bending over all day long, sometimes piece work will pay well but for pruning or thinning hourly wage is better
