If you can stand, bend, twist, walk and carry things for a full shift… We’ve got a job for you. On a typical day, your hands will get dirty, your feet a little wet, and it’s always warm since this is an indoor grow facility. Gotta be honest, the work can be monotonous at times, other days it’s tedious and involves last minute changes. Farm work is hard; the reward is seeing the cycle of the plants like from baby clones to harvesting beautiful nugs.
