Job Mission

The Nursery Assistant supports the Nursery Manager in the production of diverse native Hawaiian plants and canoe crops used in Terraformation’s restoration projects. This role assists with daily nursery operations, including plant propagation and maintenance, irrigation, inventory management, and facility maintenance, while helping ensure plants are healthy and field-ready for restoration efforts on schedule.

The Nursery Assistant will work closely with the Nursery Manager, Seed Bank team, and Restoration team to support plant production goals and restoration timelines. The position also includes occasional field work, such as seed collecting, planting, and mapping, to support restoration projects across Hawaiʻi.

This role requires strong attention to detail and organization, a willingness to work outdoors in tropical conditions, and the ability to use digital tools such as Terraware to support nursery management and restoration tracking. The Nursery Assistant contributes directly to Terraformation’s mission of scaling global forest restoration and helping solve climate change.
