Enjoy helping people see what’s possible in their gardens?
Cloverstone is looking for a locally based person with experience in permaculture, horticulture or regenerative landscape design to help launch a small residential garden-design pilot in Colwood and nearby Langford.
We help homeowners create beautiful, practical gardens that support food growing, pollinators, healthy soil and outdoor living. You’ll bring the local knowledge, meet homeowners and document their gardens, while our remote design team develops plans suited to each property.
What you’ll do
- Help identify suitable neighbourhoods and introduce homeowners to Cloverstone.
- Arrange and carry out friendly garden walk-throughs.
- Listen to homeowners’ ideas and understand what they want from their space.
- Gather clear photos, short video walkthroughs and measurements of the garden layout and existing features.
- Work with the designer to communicate the site layout and develop an accurate garden basemap.
- Record observations about existing plants, sunlight, soil and drainage, and share organized notes and recommendations with our design team.
- Help with homeowner questions and follow-up.
What you’ll bring
- Practical experience in permaculture, horticulture, garden design, regenerative landscaping or a related field.
- A good understanding of southern Vancouver Island plants and growing conditions.
- Familiarity with Colwood, Langford and the surrounding area.
- Reliable transportation for local visits.
- A friendly manner and confidence speaking with homeowners.
- Confidence using a smartphone to capture photos, videos and site notes.
- Valuable communication and organization skills.
A Permaculture Design Certificate or horticulture qualification is welcome. We’re also interested in hearing from people with strong hands-on experience.
This is flexible, paid project work organized around an initial pilot campaign, with scheduling agreed together. It could fit alongside an existing gardening practice or other work.
