West End Community Urban Garden & Nursery is looking for part-time garden hands

Haylene Green the Garden Queen is looking for two part-time garden hands to join her at the West End Community Urban Garden & Nursery.

Through her own research, Haylene Green has tapped into the method of gardening in organic soil utilizing holistic techniques to yield larger than life produce and is now ready to equip other farmers and growers with this brand of knowledge concerning food security and safety, and sustaining the environment for years to come. 

Her goal is to teach people the art of growing fruits and vegetables naturally; container gardening, raised beds gardening, hanging baskets, and other limited space gardening for sustaining themselves and their community. 

If you are interested please contact Hayelene Green at 678.933.1087.
