Good sites, but does anyone know any good jobsites for Horticultural/Gardening based employment.

Only a couple of these cover this area and not in any depth.

Thanks

How about trying local horticultural/agricultural colleges?  They help with placements for their students and may be able to help with sites dealing with employment in this area.

Hi Richard_F - don't know any specifics, but I would have thought that the local authorities are probably one of the bigger employers in this area - do your local councils have websites with job vacancies?

Hi Richard

This one, http://www.growing-careers.com/, has at times  lots of jobs - in all sorts of horticulture.  I look in very month or so, because they also have occasionally the really interesting "odd-ball" jobs.

Another one I've looked at - http://www.thrive.org.uk/page03.html.

The others were real "garden-centre-manager/sales" type sites - not of interest to me, so I haven't kept the bookmarks.

All best - Gavin
