Full Job Description

About Rhythmic Gardening

Rhythmic Gardening is a fine garden care company serving residential clients across the Bay Area's Lower Peninsula and South Bay. We specialize in California native, drought-tolerant, and edible landscapes — work that is ecologically grounded and aesthetically intentional. Our focus is on plants that matter, maintained with skill and care.

We're a small, close-knit team of three with around 60 active clients and a strong reputation built on quality and attention to detail.

Position Overview

We're looking for an experienced Garden Manager to lead our team and uphold the standard of care across our full client base. This is a hands-on leadership role — part horticulturalist, part team lead, part client steward. You'll be trusted to manage your schedule, guide crew members, and bring a trained eye to every garden you touch.

Key Responsibilities

Perform regular garden maintenance: hand weeding, deadheading, mulching, and seasonal planting
Conduct aesthetic and corrective pruning of perennials, shrubs, and small trees
Monitor plant health and address pest and disease issues using organic methods
Support soil health through composting, mulching, and organic amendments
Train and guide team members; maintain quality standards across all 60 client gardens
Manage scheduling and coordinate day-to-day team logistics
Communicate clearly and professionally with clients regarding garden observations and needs

Qualifications

2–3+ years of experience in horticulture or a related field
Strong plant identification skills and knowledge of seasonal care
Proficiency in aesthetic and corrective pruning
Familiarity with organic and ecological gardening principles
Self-directed, reliable, and comfortable working outdoors in all conditions
Valid driver's license and reliable transportation

Preferred

Experience with California native plants, edible gardens, or pollinator habitats
Coursework or certification in horticulture, permaculture, or ecological landscape care
Background in regenerative or restorative landscape maintenance

Why Rhythmic Gardening

We do work we're proud of — in gardens that reflect the land they're planted in. If you're a skilled horticulturalist who wants real ownership of your craft and your clients, we'd love to hear from you.

Main changes: fixed all typos, tightened the language throughout, added the "fine garden care" and ecological positioning from your brand, made the team/client context concrete, and replaced the generic closing with something that speaks to the kind of person you're actually looking for. Want any adjustments before posting?

Job Types: Full-time, Part-time

Pay: $29.00 - $35.00 per hour

Benefits:

Flexible schedule

Work Location: In person
