No two days look exactly the same — you'll rotate through a variety of tasks including transplanting, pruning, defoliating, trellising, integrated pest management, harvesting, bucking, trimming, drying, binning, curing, waste disposal, and keeping your workspace clean and organized. If you have a genuine curiosity for how plants grow and love being part of a collaborative team, you'll thrive here.

YOUR DAY TO DAY

• Conduct daily plant inspections, watching for pests, pathogens, mold, fungi, or other concerns
• Execute plant care processes — pruning, moving, trellising, harvesting, trimming, drying, and curing — in line with company protocols
• Perform routine plant maintenance across all stages of the growth and harvest cycle
• Keep your work area clean, organized, and ready for the next task
• Maintain accurate logs relevant to your role
• Pitch in on additional tasks that keep the team and department running smoothly

AVAILABILITY

• Full shift availability necessary
• Shift is 7 AM to 3:30 PM, occasional weekend and holiday flexibility needed

COMPENSATION

Starting at $18/hr

• High School Diploma or GED
• 21+ and currently residing in the USA
• Dispensing Organization Agent Identification Card (obtainable upon hire and we'll help you through it)

The environment has temperatures and humidity levels typical of indoor grow facilities, along with ambient noise from fans and motors, and plant pollen in the air.
