Horticulturist
Bristol, Virginia, United States
In charge of the entire Horticulture Department it includes but not limited to management of an Assistant Horticulturist and Interns while teaching both Horticulture knowledge that I have learned from college and while I was an intern and Assistant Horticulturist, manage the budgeting and inventory of the department, creating projects that either cleans up and/or redesign areas of the Golf Course, manage and maintain the Greenhouse, Garden, Flower Beds, Vineyard, Beehives, Orchards, and Blackberry vines. I make a yearly Plant Sell coordinated with the superintendent that the members buy from. I work closely with the Clubhouse mainly the Head Chef with creating plans on what crops and herbs should be grown for them, while working closely with the Superintendent and General Manager with what they want the Flower Beds and pots to look like for the year. On occasion I will be part of tour groups for college students to show what the Horticulture Department is about to possibly recruit interns.
