High School/College Student for Yard Work

Baltimore MD

Description

This ad worked out very well in the past, so I'm trying the same thing... I'm looking for a local student to help me get my yard ready for the spring/summer. Tasks will include blowing leaves, weeding, mulching, raised garden bed maintenance and general yard clean-up. At this point, I'm offering a one-time gig of 3 hours; but if this goes well, there is the potential of more visits throughout the growing season. Any future visits will always be for at least 3 hours. My home business has been greatly impacted by COVID-19, so I'm on a shoestring budget! The rate of pay is $12 an hour--so clearly---I AM NOT LOOKING FOR A PROFESSIONAL! I know that the pay would be MUCH more for a professional. That being said, if you are bringing your own tools, and clearly demonstrate your EXPERIENCE with yard work, then the rate is $15 an hour. This would be ideal for a young man or young lady who already has some experience with gardening. But if you are just trying to fill some down time, while you are waiting for our lives to "get back on track", that's fine. Ultimately, if you are detail-oriented and can follow directions, then experience is not required! What is required: reliable transportation, your own phone, the ability to comfortably kneel and a MASK (you only need to wear it, while we are interacting...otherwise, it's up to you). If you are interested, please write and tell me a bit about yourself, your experience (if any) and where you are located. At first, I will ONLY respond to email; we can exchange phone numbers, if this seems like a good fit. I'm in Linthicum, about 10 minutes from BWI Airport. Work could be done as soon as today or tomorrow (Saturday or Sunday).
