We're seeking an experienced garden care specialist for our residential garden care company.
This person will perform basic gardening tasks, including pruning, weeding, cutting back and blowing off. An appreciation of and desire to continually learn about horticulture is helpful! Other skills include an ability to operate industry equipment and hand tools, a positive attitude, and transportation to and from our Richmond City shop each day.
Ideally, this person will complete our Master Gardener Training:
- train with our boxwood expert to learn and master the art of pruning, shaping, and thinning.
- learn about organic fertilization requirements, including when and how to fertilize based on individual needs.
- train in organic pesticide application, receiving company-paid certification.
- master mid-level plant identification for zone 7 - in other words, learn the names of the plants you see every day.
Upon successful completion of our Master Gardener Training, this person will move to the next pay tier.
We offer generous starting pay, transparent pay tiers, ample paid time off, and many other perks. Flex hours (for example, to accommodate a class schedule) will be considered.
Our team enjoys the outdoors, appreciates and respects horticulture, and takes pride in their work. Our team members are also musicians, sports fanatics, and artists. Work may pay the bills, but we ensure work is balanced with all the other aspects of who you are. If you're looking for a relaxed, non-corporate culture and have approximately one year of experience in garden care with a desire to move upward, consider joining our team.
