Summer 2027 Internship Program

We are now recruiting college students and recent graduates for Summer 2027 internship opportunities!

Our paid, full-time Internship Program is designed to give students hands-on exposure to the many sides of the landscape industry. Internship opportunities are available at many Yellowstone Landscape branch locations across the country. We operate in 22+ states and have 80+ locations nationwide.

What You'll Experience

No two days in landscaping are exactly the same, and your internship won't be either. You'll work with your Branch Manager and be paired with an Account Manager who will serve as your Mentor throughout the summer. You will experience a rotational schedule that balances your interests with the needs of the branch. Your Mentor will provide ongoing guidance, answer questions, share their best practices, and help you develop your own leadership and management style.

Throughout The Summer, You'll Have Opportunities To

• Work alongside our crews and experience landscape operations firsthand.
• Learn the day-to-day responsibilities of our management, administrative, and sales teams.
• Gain exposure to safety practices, crew management, scheduling, quality control, and customer service.
• Participate in branch meetings and learn how we manage the financial and operational side of the business.
• Develop your leadership, communication, time management, and problem-solving skills.
• Build relationships with Yellowstone Landscape professionals and other interns across the company.
• Participate in professional development, networking opportunities, and company-led learning sessions.
