We provide pollinator friendly gardening services and cultivate a diverse array of pollinator-friendly flowers, medicinal plants, and herbs and keep a strong and thriving apiary so we can create value-added products sold at farmers markets, festivals, and our farm stand.
We are looking for someone who is excited to work along with the Picaflor team on gardening, farming, and at times the creation of value added products.

This individual should center, value and respect humans, and understand the value of plant and insect diversity in our work. Candidates will work well in teams, with transparency, honesty and a straightforward approach.
