Who are we?
What will you do?
Tree nursery Akkermans is a cosy family business specialising in growing avenue trees. We do so in Oosterhout on 40 hectares of our own land. Green fingers are in our genes. For five generations.
Winter months
- pruning trees to keep them in top condition
- preparing orders: sold trees are loaded by crane onto a trailer and then transferred to trucks
- work in our shed: pruning small trees that we later replant in the nursery
A day with us is never the same! You work in the open air while enjoying nature. Depending on the season, your duties will be as follows:
Summer months
- installing bamboo canes and tying up newly planted trees
- pruning trees and ensuring healthy growth
- And many more varying tasks!
No experience?
No problem!
Are you motivated to work in a green environment, but do not yet have focused experience? No worries! We will be happy to teach you the ropes.
