As the Bareroot Production Manager here at Native Forest Nursery, I am responsible for managing the staff and resources that it takes to ensure a strong and healthy crop. I oversee the production of our undercutting, fertilization, pest management, seed collecting, and planting, making sure that we stay on schedule to ensure our crop is getting what it needs to thrive. I enjoy working here because of our wonderful team of people that I get to work with, the beautiful scenery, and the opportunity to gain knowledge and experience in the Horticulture industry. Outside of work I enjoy outdoor activities such as whitewater rafting, hiking, and camping. Enjoying these outdoor activities helps to motivate my desire to produce a good crop to maintain our natural environment for all to enjoy.
