the heart of our gardensJoin Our Team
We value plant knowledge and prior garden experience, but our staff come from diverse backgrounds and work experiences.
Every person on our team makes a difference. That’s why this is such a special place! We have fun together while working hard. Each of us share a sincere willingness to learn, to support each other in a positive team setting, and to go the extra mile for our guests.
Beginning with only a handful of staff in the early years, the Tagawa Team has grown to over 60 year-round staff and nearly 140 staff at peak season. Because of the Tagawa Family’s vision and our team’s passion and dedication, we have earned numerous community and regional awards through the years and are also listed among the Top 100 Independent Garden Centers in the United States and Canada by Garden Center magazine.
As a local family-owned business that brings to life the best of Colorado gardening, we are grateful for all the staff who have poured their hearts into our business for the past 40 years – and for all those yet to become part of our story in the future.
Now for the nitty gritty. After all, we’re a garden center!
We are an equal opportunity employer. All qualified applicants are considered for positions without regard to race, color, national origin, religion, ancestry, age, creed, sex, sexual orientation, marital status, veteran status, disability, or other protected statuses. It is our intention that all qualified applications are given equal opportunity and that selection decisions be based on job-related factors. Essential functions of all Tagawa Gardens team members are bending, stooping, reaching, stretching, pushing, pulling, lifting, and carrying heavy materials. We also seek people with a great commitment to work as scheduled, especially during peak spring season when extra time off is difficult to accommodate. Some weekend and overtime is required.
Applicants under the age of 16 must provide employment authorization signed by a parent or legal guardian at the time of the interview.
