Johnsmith1995 Posted August 18, 2021 Report Share Posted August 18, 2021 Few questions for anyone with knowledge of this - apart from gardening what other duties is the estate gardener expected to undertake? - what is day to day life like? - what qualifications / tickets / experience would you recommend getting to become an estate gardener?.

Stonepark Posted August 18, 2021 Report Share Posted August 18, 2021 Depending on the estate you can be a professional gardener, or general dogs body doing everything from growing food in kitchen garden, mowing, spraying etc to doing firewood, cleaning the Lord's boots and washing the dogs, it really does depend on you asking the right questions and whom you are applying to As to certs, No1 is spraying, 2 tractor\mower driving, 3 brush cutter 4 chainsaw, etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
