GROW Program

The GROW Program is a comprehensive one-year initiative designed for young adults aged 18–22, offering a unique blend of landscape and life skill education. Delivered over two terms, Fall and Spring, the program emphasizes holistic development through structured content, regular self-reflection via journaling and assessments, and weekly team discussions. Participants will build a strong foundation in both personal and professional growth, preparing them for success in their careers and lives.

Kickstart Your Future with a Job That Actually Invests in You!

Looking for a job that’s more than “just a job”?

If you’re between the ages of 18–24 and in a season of figuring out your next steps—whether it’s saving for school or exploring a hands-on career in the trades—this could be the perfect fit.

Sutherland Landscaping is offering a limited number of full-time apprentice spots as part of our GROW Program—a 12-month paid work-and-learn experience designed specifically for young adults like you.

You’ll earn a steady paycheck while building real-life skills in landscaping and beyond. We combine outdoor, physical work with life and leadership development so you can thrive—at work, and in whatever comes next.
