The Prairie Stylist is a small, growing landscaping and garden design business focused on creating beautiful, biodiverse landscapes using native plants. I’m looking for someone who enjoys working outside, doesn’t mind getting their hands dirty, and would be excited to help me grow the business. 

About the Work

This position will involve a mix of landscape installation, garden maintenance, and heavier outdoor work. Some days may be spent planting and weeding, while others may involve moving soil and mulch, removing sod, preparing beds, or working on hardscape projects.

Typical work may include:

• Installing native plants, shrubs, and trees
• Digging and preparing planting beds
• Weeding and garden maintenance
• Moving and spreading mulch
• Removing sod and overgrown vegetation
• Pruning and general garden care
• Planting and transplanting
• Assisting with landscape installations
• Hardscaping and stonework
• Using hand tools and landscaping equipment
• General cleanup and hauling

What I'm Looking For

Most importantly, you should be:

• Dependable and hardworking
• Comfortable doing physically demanding outdoor work
• Comfortable working in heat and getting dirty
• Someone who takes pride in doing a job well
• Able to work both independently and as part of a small team
• Willing to learn and take direction
• Kind, respectful, and easy to work with

Experience & Skills

Landscaping or gardening experience is a big plus, and I'm especially interested in someone with experience in:

• Hardscaping
• Landscape installation
• Soil preparation and grading
• Sod removal
• Planting
• Pruning
• Invasive plant removal
• Operating landscaping tools and equipment
• Native plants and ecological gardening

Native plant knowledge is preferred but not required. I'm happy to teach someone who is enthusiastic about learning.

Why Work With The Prairie Stylist?

I care about creating landscapes that support pollinators, birds, and other wildlife while also being beautiful and enjoyable for the people who live in them.

Because the business is growing, there is room for the right person to grow with it. I'm looking for someone who may eventually want to take on more responsibility and become an important part of the business.

If you love working outside, enjoy physical work, and like the idea of helping build something from the ground up, I'd love to hear from you.
