Getting Work in Horticulture – A Guide to Careers in Horticulture
Horticulture is an industry that will always be with us; human life cannot exist and thrive without plants – they are integral to human survival. That fact alone makes horticulture not only important, but perhaps the only career that mankind is unlikely to ever see disappear.
Sound, broad-based training in the fundamentals of horticulture is a good starting point for entering this industry. However, not all courses on offer will be broad enough or in-depth enough to set you up for a sustainable, lifelong career – so you need to understand the fundamentals required in horticulture (in general) and then choose a diverse course, that enables you to achieve these aims.
