Sunraised Gardens is a local start-up focused on empowering people to grow their own fresh, healthy, sustainable food right in their backyard. Our goal is to create thousands of new backyard gardeners by making it as simple as possible for people to grow their own food. We believe that when people get their hands in soil, they begin to think differently about the food that they eat, and the larger impact that it has on the world.
What We Do
We install high-yield vegetable gardens at homes and businesses, typically raised beds. Using a custom soil mix and block style gardening method, we make it easy for beginner gardeners to grow a lot of food in small spaces. Our goal is to take people who have never grown food before (and have very little time to do so), and give them the best template to succeed.
Weβre looking for Garden Installers who:
β Work incredibly hard
β Enjoy demanding physical labor outside
β Are able to communicate clearly with customers
β Can lift a lot of weight (100+ pounds) and have physical stamina and endurance
β Are passionate about the mission of Sunraised Gardens
β Are honest and take responsibility for their actions
β Are independent and can work well alone
β Can problem solve and think on their feet
β Can come to work (reliable transportation) at garden sites around Boulder and Denver.
Preferred Experience (not required)
β Farming experience
β Landscaping experience
This position is 3-5 days a week and starts immediately. This is a seasonal job, as installs start to die down around July (although the possibility for part time continues through November).
Work starts around 8:00 each day and some days can go until 6 or 7pm, depending on the job, weather, etc. Compensation will start at $15/hour with the possibility for a raise after 30 days.
