Summer has arrived in South FL, marking the end of our cool weather vegetable season and ushering in the season where tropical, heat and humidity-tolerant crops flourish. This is the perfect time to plant a variety of tropical fruit trees, and our nursery is well stocked with an exciting selection of both the most popular and the rarest species. To see our availability and pricing for our fruit trees ahead of time, please email dylan@ready-to-grow.com. But that’s not all. We will also have heat-tolerant veggies, culinary and aromatic herbs, native butterfly plants and essential gardening supplies like soil mix, composted mulch, and organic fertilizers to help edible landscapes thrive. We encourage you to share with friends and family that might be interested.

Ready-to-Grow Gardens is hiring!

Are you or is someone you know looking for a job helping others grow their own food? Joining the RTG team might be a good fit! There is a growing demand for people needing help with their edible garden and we need to build our team over the coming months.

We are looking for help with the following:

– Edible garden installation & care

– Fruit tree planting & care

– Nursery management (plant propagation, organization, weeding, signage)

– Carpentry (building garden beds)

– Loading and transporting heavy materials

– Sales of plants and garden supplies at the nursery

– Marketing

– Garden education (helping teach others to grow their own food)

Gardening can be a lot of fun, but keep in mind that working outdoors is usually hot and sometimes rainy. We are looking for teammates with a strong focused work ethic. Prior experience with growing edible plants is preferred but not necessary.

If interested, please email dylan@ready-to-grow.com with a cover letter, resume and preferred pay rate. We are open to occasional, part-time and full-time help. Also, if you know someone that might be interested in this, please share!

For anyone looking for a gift, Ready-to-Grow is now offering eGift cards which can be purchased from our gift card page.

It was an honor to recently get a surprise visit from John Kohler of Growing Your Greens. Below is a video he made at our nursery and demo garden showing some of the growing we do.  I recommend watching it and other videos that John has made about growing your own food.  More at www.growingyourgreens.com …
