Grower position available


A  hydroponic farm, located in Fort Lauderdale which grow herbs, lettuces and tomatoes is seeking to fill a Grower position. This is "hands-on" work with the full responsibility for growing and packing produce, maintaining the greenhouses and water treatment (R.O.) plant and supervising a team of 10 people.

Requires an intelligent and hardworking individual with leadership skills. This is not a "lab coat" environment. Most of the workday will be spent doing manual labor and working in greenhouses that are quite hot during the summer. The drive to produce the maximum amount of the best looking product is imperative. So is a personality that is always looking for a better, more effective way of doing things and collaborating with other growers around the world to combat insect, fungal and other problems facing all of us.

Initial pay will be around $30,000, based on experience, with a lot of upside based on performance.
