SEASONAL STAFF
When the weather is nice, we have the largest staff. Makes sense for the nursery business, right? Spring - March, April, & May - are by far our busiest months of the year and when we require the most help. We are looking for friendly, hardworking individuals to work seasonally in a variety of positions:
- Sales / Customer Service - Plant knowledge is a must. CNP or Master Gardener certification is a plus, but not a requirement.
- Customer Service / Phones - We get a LOT of phone calls in the Spring and it can be difficult to answer them. Plant knowledge and communication skills are a must. CNP or Master Gardener certification is a plus, but not a requirement. This is a good opportunity for those that would rather not be on their feet all day.
- Cashiers - Previous cashier experience preferred but not required.
- Labor - Previous experience preferred but not required.
Pay based on experience.
