Ready to see things grow? By laws of nature, spring is on its way, we just don't know how long it will take. Come join Saint Paul Natural Resources in our greenhouse and kiss winter good-bye! Greenhouse Assistant(s) work closely with gardening staff to help grow and care for plants at the Como Operations greenhouse facility. Plants and flowers used in Saint Paul's parks and streetscapes are more sustainable when grown on-site in the greenhouse. By the way, did we mention it can be nearly 80 degrees inside the greenhouse?
This role is only available to people who can work Monday-Friday between the hours of 7:30am and 3:30pm. We are not able to accommodate nights and weekend volunteers.
