Nursery Work Experience

Posted by jackstar Cairns QLD (My Page) on

Hi!

I have recently relocated to Cairns from Perth WA and am studying Horticulture at Tropical North Queensland TAFE.
I am seeking work experience within the nursery industry and am interested in all aspects - but particularly rare exotic plants and propagation. I am hoping that someone can recommend any nurseries or specialist growers who would be kind enough to take on a keen 'apprentice'. Any suggestions would be GREATLY appreciated!!

Many thanks.

Try Yuruga nursery on the tablelands at Walkamin, they provided me with work experience when I was younger.
If you want to come seed collecting-botanising with me, Im on the tablelands, send me an email. Im 99% into native rainforest plants.
