  • Help train team members on new techniques and best practices
  • Maintain a clean, organized, and safe work environment

What you bring

  • Associate's degree in Agriculture, Plant Science, Biology, Chemistry, or a related field (or equivalent combination of education and experience)
  • Interest or experience in nursery production, agriculture, horticulture, or greenhouse operations
  • Strong attention to detail and commitment to producing high-quality work
  • Ability to maintain accurate records and use spreadsheets or production databases
  • Comfortable working both independently and as part of a team
  • Willingness to work indoors and outdoors in varying weather conditions and perform the physical aspects of nursery work

If you're looking for a role where you can build technical skills, contribute to a team, and play an important part in growing some of the highest-quality nursery stock in the industry, we'd love to hear from you.
