High School Students Gain Valuable Experience, and Tex-Scapes Gains Future Employees
Tex-Scapes Nursery and Landscape is proud to offer a high school Apprenticeship Program, which allows teens a chance to learn a trade in the green industry. We believe the green industry is the most fulfilling career choice of our lifetime. By giving high school students a chance to work at our company, we hope to inspire and train the future generation.
The Apprenticeship Program has been evolving and growing over time. It began with our growth partnership program in which students grow a crop inside hanging baskets. They do all the work from start to finish. We picked out the plants and provided the materials, and we instruct them on the growing process. When the students finished, we market the hanging baskets to the community through our garden center. We continue to see success, one student after another with programs like these.
We made a video that further explains the program and gives you one student's perspective on the process. This student is now a full-time employee at Tex-Scapes. We have also encouraged her to go through the Texas Nursery and Landscape Association's nursery professional program so that she can further her knowledge and gain certification.
The Apprenticeship Program begins in the classroom. We show the above video to students and let them see how the program has worked out for one student. We leave applications with the students, which they can fill out if they are interested. We offer multiple positions, and we are excited to expand the program even more. There are so many positions available in the green industry, and we love to see young people learning the trade and gaining valuable experience that they can actually use.
