ROTCH-JONES-DUFF HOUSE & GARDEN MUSEUM INC
Garden Go-fers help RJD's Manager of Buildings and Grounds to maintain the city-block that the house gardens encompass. On these grounds are a formal boxwood rose parterre garden, a boxwood specimen garden, cutting garden and an award winning Woodland Walk. Maintenance includes clean-up, dead-heading, pruning and other basic maintenance under the close supervision of our knowledgeable staff. This is a more physically active position for those who enjoy the open air and quiet, solitary work.
