Shoots Internship
A BIT ABOUT YOU
Understanding, people-oriented, and helpful, you feel rewarded by being of service to others. You clearly have a passion for the natural world, and excited to find out how you can build your career in concert with it. The highlight of your day is spending time outdoors, and it’s even better when you’re doing it with friends. You’re in your Junior year of pursuing a Horticulture degree, eager to discover the many opportunities ahead and find out how you can make a real difference in the world around you.
A BIT ABOUT US
We like plants, people, and beautiful spaces. John Mulhall came to Omaha in 1953 to landscape, and now, three generations later, we’re as committed as we’ve ever been to making Omaha a more beautiful place to live. Today we’re a team of a few hundred people, but our focus remains the same: working together to engage our community and share our passion for the beauty of the natural world. And we have fun doing it.
