37. Florist
I am not arguing this one way or another, but somehow in college about 12 years ago, my part time job employer was able to pay me less than minimum wage because it was supposedly for agriculture work.

I was working at a garden center and florist.

It seems as if they could do some sort of a two tiered system - maybe one for people under age 17 or something (or whatever) and higher for above that age - though unfortunately there are young people who are trying to support families as well.
