Casual Worker - Horticulture

Hillswick, United Kingdom

We are a small team at Da Barn. However, we are ever expanding. With the seasonal nature of the work, we are looking to put together a bank of people who are interested in occasional casual work. As permanent positions become available, preference will be given to those who have worked with us on a casual basis. Available hours will vary with the season and weather. Occasional hours may also be available in Lerwick for those that are able to travel.

Work at Da Barn mainly consists of horticulture / gardening work. Significant portions of the work will be in and around our polytunnels, caring for the plants, planting, re-potting, watering, tidying and labelling. In the high summer, the temperature in the tunnels can get quite hot, but there will also be a portion of work required outside. Work is available year round, with the amount and type of work varying with the season.
