Like all good environmentalists, Native Here Nursery tries hard to reuse as many supplies as possible. When plants are sold, we pull out and collect the colored plastic price tags. Old brittle tags are discarded and the rest are washed, sorted by color, and stored in clean containers for reuse.
Here’s what we’re looking for:
Label Washer
Location: Native Here Nursery and/or at home
Qualifications: Able to visit the nursery at least once a month.
Responsibilities: Once a month or so, check the collections of used price tags at the nursery and clean them: first wash them in water to remove all visible dirt, then dunk them in alcohol to kill pathogens, and then lay them out to dry.
Time commitment: 3-4 hours per month, maybe less. This is an easy job that can be done solo and with flexible hours, at home or at the nursery.
