Mojave Desert Land Trust (MDLT) is seeking a Plant Conservation Specialist I to help grow the native plants that support healthier desert communities and the restoration of degraded lands across the Mojave and Colorado Deserts. This is an opportunity to develop specialized nursery and conservation skills while making a tangible difference in the California desert.
This is more than a routine nursery role. You will contribute to native plant propagation and cultivation, conservation seed work, plant health, accurate production tracking, and the day-to-day effectiveness of MDLT’s Mojave Desert Restoration Nursery. You will work alongside an experienced team, build proficiency with established techniques, and use careful observation and sound judgment to recognize when something needs attention.
