Pay:

W-2 employee, $15 per hour and up About the Role We're a small, quality-focused plant nursery that values kindness, integrity, and doing things the right way. We're looking for a reliable, detail-oriented person to help with packing plants, preparing orders, and decorating packages. You don't need formal experience—just consistency, willingness to learn, respect for plants and customers, and an eye for cute design. Our customers' packages are treated with a great deal of attention and precision. All boxes are hand-drawn on, cards are handwritten, and all plants are packed with tissue paper, stickers, hearts, etc. Mistakes are costly, so we are deliberate in our methods, and work as a team to ensure they don't occur. We report and resolve mistakes immediately without hesitation, and certainly without reprisal. Monday is our main packing day, but we occasionally have packages on Tuesday as well. We primarily need help packing on Monday, with the option to also come Tuesday. Who You Are (Ideal Candidate) You're someone who enjoys hands-on work and doesn't mind getting a little dirty. You're flexible, open to taking on new tasks as they come up, and comfortable bending, kneeling, or working close to the ground. You're able to lift and carry up to 40 lbs including up stairs . You value doing things the right way, even when they take a little longer, and you treat plants, people, and workspaces with respect. You own up to mistakes immediately so the issue can be fixed, not delayed, as that would be even more costly. Bonus points for experience in art, design, and/or order fulfillment. Work Environment Most work takes place indoors. Our nursery includes two indoor greenhouses and a designated packing/processing area. Tasks may occasionally require briefly stepping outside (e.g., moving supplies between areas). The work can be physical and may involve soil, water, and plant debris, but safety guidance and training are provided. You'll work closely with the managing owners in a calm, organized environment where quality is the priority. Primary Responsibilities1.
