That's a little easier to do if you are in an RV because you can pull up stakes and move hundreds of miles in a day to get to the next place where a job is, and you can also "camp out" for extended periods of time in more comfortable surroundings. But you might try tapping into this community; sorry I can't remember what they call themselves.
I posted a whole set of links like what you're describing. They are called the "Grey Nomads" and seem to be fairly unique to Australia. They quit their professional jobs, or retire, and follow the harvest trail through Australia. They range in age from their 40s or 50s up into their 70s amd 80s. I joined them briefly working in a cherry packing plant in this area.
But you might look to see if something like that exists in North America.
