GreenTree Garden Supply is a lot of things. A manufacturer, a gardening supplies retail store, a wholesaler, a member of the Ithaca community, an employer, and an advocate for our local food movement and sustainability. Plus we recently formed a new company -- Bio365 LLC -- with partners in California to manufacture and distribute our horticultural media in the western U.S.

We’re looking for a full-time team member to take responsibility for communicating who and what we are with the world. This person will support both GreenTree and Bio365. This would be a great opportunity for someone who wants to work on all sides of establishing and executing the marketing strategy for all of our initiatives.

GreenTree and its partners talk to a huge range of audiences -- from end users, fellow retailers, farmers, and gardeners of all types and experience levels -- so we’re looking for someone who’s excited about learning about all aspects of our business and who can assess the best avenues to talk to those disparate audiences and then create content, including but not limited to graphics, photography, video, and writing.

The right applicant is imaginative and collaborates well with a team. This person must be able to take a strategy all the way from design to implementation. This team member will work on everything from high-level strategizing with a group to managing social media pages and designing product labels and attending trade shows. A self-motivated person who can juggle multiple projects in progress will be best suited to the job.

Work experience or education in a relevant marketing field is a requirement. An interest in growing, farming, and sustainability is a major plus. The schedule is full-time Monday-Friday, with flexibility for special events on weekends. Some travel (a few trips a year) may be required.

GreenTree is at 606 Elmira Rd, Ithaca, NY. Please send a resume and cover letter to Holly at [email protected].
