Botanist/Horticulturalist/Permaculturalist/Nature Person for Gig

Raleigh NC

Description

Hi I have a small farm in Raleigh that is getting started and I'm looking for someone to do a walk-through with me. You should be able to identify the plants and trees we see (insects and birds are a bonus), as well as understand how they interact within the ecosystem. We will also be collecting soil samples. I will be consulting you on the nature of this soil and seeking your opinion on horticultural/permacultural prospects. Please be knowledgeable on these subjects and give me suggestions on books to read. This gig will take anywhere from thirty minutes to two hours, not sure. Please respond with your CV and wage expectations. Great gig for a student or a retired professional!
