Milmont Greenhouses Seeking Head Grower
Milmont Greenhouses in Waynesboro, VA, is a family based Mennonite business in the heart of the Shenandoah Valley with about one acre growing area under cover with an outdoor growing area as well. Our business is around 85-90% retail and 10-15% wholesale.
We are looking for an experienced grower, about 5 years or more. However, we would consider someone with less experience provided they have a sufficient level of training in growing and are self motivated to learn and are able to work with the options we can give them. Although negotiable, in the past, our grower has been responsible for both growing and ordering. We currently have two grower's helpers/waterers with experience plus people who are experienced in the planting department.
Anyone interested may find it helpful to visit us before Christmas to get a view as to what our holiday look is like. Visit our website at http://www.milmont.com/
