Thanks for your interest in joining our team!
WHO WE ARE: Old House Gardens is the world’s only mail-order source devoted to antique flower bulbs. Since 1993 we’ve been tracking down rare bulbs around the world, researching their histories, growing some ourselves and recruiting small farmers to grow the others, and sharing them with gardeners through our catalog and website.

WHEN WE NEED HELP: We’re hiring now for our spring shipping season which runs from March 19th through May 1st, or so.
THE JOB — OFFICE ASSISTANT: Duties will include basic office tasks: answering phones, taking orders, copying, filing, and mailing catalogs. Familiarity with flowers or gardening is helpful but not necessary.

The ideal candidate will be dependable, have excellent phone etiquette and a good eye for detail.
YOUR CO-WORKERS: Our crew is a fun, hard-working, friendly group. Most are gardeners, and all of them would tell you this is a fun place to work.
OUR LOCATION: We work out of an office in an old farm house on the property of the Washtenaw Food Hub, just north of downtown Ann Arbor.
PAY & HOURS: Starting pay is $10.00/hour, with a 25% team-discount on all bulbs, Monday through Friday.
THE NEXT STEP: Complete our application. You can either submit it online or print and mail it to us at 4175 Whitmore Lake Rd., Ann Arbor, MI 48105. Feel free to include a resume.
