Description

Full and Part-Time Landscape Gardeners We are a small landscape gardening business working with valued clients in bucolic Westport, MA and Little Compton, RI. We are looking for full and part-time landscape gardeners to join us for the upcoming growing season (as the weather breaks in March through Thanksgiving). Work tasks vary as we build and maintain gardens. Essential tasks include: turning and amending soil; planting annuals, perennials, shrubs and small trees; mulching; weeding; watering; deadheading; and light pruning of woody plants. We do not use power tools or mow lawns. Candidates must be able to lift 40#, possess a willingness to work in all kinds of weather, and be to maintain top-quality work over the course of the day. A keen eye for detail and some plant knowledge is desirable: desire to learn is essential. Individuals must provide their own transportation to and from the work site. Pay is commensurate with experience. Starting wages $18/Hr. Please include a statement of interest and a resume as an application.
