Flourish is seeking friendly, creative instructors to assist with, and sometimes lead, our popular hands-on botanical workshops for corporate clients and private events throughout the Bay Area.
Our workshops include activities like succulent terrariums, moss walls, plant care classes, and other creative botanical projects designed to help people connect, relax, and make something beautiful together.
This is a part time position with irregular hours, ideal for someone who enjoys teaching, public speaking, and working with groups in a relaxed, creative environment. This position is best for people who live in the North Bay, ideally Sonoma County or northern Marin county, due to some of the commuting requirements.
TO APPLY: Please read the entire job posting! Email us your resume as a PDF attachment; include a paragraph or two in the body of the email stating 1) any relevant experience you have, 2) your availability on weekdays, and 3) why the sporadic/irregular hours we offer works for your life (i.e. do you have other freelance work? Just looking for a fun job without needing consistent income?)
