Arboretum/Woody Plants Team
This team is responsible for all tree and shrub care for all areas of the South Carolina Botanical Garden and maintenance of the Schoenike Arboretum, Specialty Arboretum, Quercetum, Camelia Garden, and Hydrangea Garden. Experience is helpful, but not required. Employees must be responsible, work safely, and willing to learn a variety of skill sets.
Student job duties include assisting with planned and incidental hazard tree removal, operating skid-steers, tractors, and zero-turn lawn mowers, weed eating, planting, watering, mulching, and performing various plant-health tasks. As full-time staff is limited, our team sometimes assists with a variety of other garden projects as needed.
