Seasonal Installation Team Member

(Paid Opportunities) Return to Paid Opportunities

Start Date: March  Compensation: $18-25/hr

We are not your average design, build, and landscaping company. At Sprout, our mission is improving and diversifying our environment while keeping our carbon footprint to a minimum. We specialize in edible, sustainable and biodiverse gardens across Essex and Bergen Countries in New Jersey, with occasional work in Manhattan.

Traditional American landscape designs seldom prioritize the ecosystem. Sprout aims to protect a biodiverse fauna of butterflies, birds, bees, amphibians, and bats. We create gardens and select plants with both aesthetics and biodiversity in mind. Sprout’s landscapes are more than just beautiful, personal garden spaces. By design, they support and enhance our clients’ personal ecosystem by creating habitats for vital insect and animal life. Our ecological ethic extends to our construction work: we use all-natural stone and source sustainably harvested wood as much as possible.  

We are looking for energetic, enthusiastic, and motivated people with a passion for nature to help us build and maintain these outdoor spaces so that they can continue to support a balanced, thriving ecosystem. We are hiring for a Seasonal Landscape Installation Team Member for March-September 2025.

The ideal candidate for the role is experienced, with the desire to learn and grow while working collaboratively and independently. The Installation Team Member will be working with the crew and independently, depending on skill level.
