OPINION
TENNEY, District Judge.
The plaintiffs, approximately 100 migrant farmworkers, instituted this action under the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938, as amended, 29 U.S.C. § 201 et seq. (1982) (“FLSA”), against six farm owners in Orange County, New York (“defendants”). 1 The plaintiffs seek to recover wage deductions made by the defendants for housing provided to the migrant workers in the defendants’ labor camps, during 1978-1983 growing seasons. The plaintiffs claim that by deducting housing costs, the growers violated the minimum wage provisions of the FLSA. See 29 U.S.C. § 206.
