With three retail locations and over ten acres of growing space we have opportunities in a variety of positions. Competitive wages and benefits are available. These opportunities are career path jobs, with potential for future growth. Leadership skills are critical.
Our Department Manager position is a unique role which requires an individual to assert strong leadership skills as well as being fully hands-on in the day to day operations. This position involves working directly with the entire team in keeping our locations functioning at a high level through the leadership of employees and management of product flow and the customer experience. This position requires an eye for detail and the ability to assess future needs for the department and location.

What sets Family Tree Nursery apart is our passion for plants; a passion that began 50 years ago when a young dental student followed his passion and transferred to the horticulture program at Kansas State University. Ron Nelson opened the doors of the first store at 85th Street and Farley as a wholesale growing facility providing other outlets with high-quality gift plants, like Poinsettias and Mums in 1964. This love for plants has since evolved into three retail locations; with the acquisition of the Shawnee store in 1981 and Liberty location in 1988 joining the Overland Park location. We a...re also proud to say in 1986 we added our growing facility, with over 6 acres of covered greenhouses to grow our award-winning mums, poinsettias, perennials, bedding plants and hanging baskets and deliver them daily to our stores. With over 100 full and part-time employees, under the helm of Rons son, Eric, Family Tree Nursery continues to provide superior products with the knowledge, service and experience to back it up. Our bedding plants look better because theyre grown better we grow almost every bedding plant we sell at our own greenhouses. We travel nationwide scouting trial gardens and test sites to uncover the best varieties for our tough growing conditions and continually push to grow them bigger and better. We invite you to walk through the doors of any of our unique locations and experience the magic that has made Family Tree Nursery a premier garden center destination. Family Tree Nursery is a team of passionate horticulturists providing a variety of gardening products that ensure a unique shopping experience. A well informed, courteous staff, backed by years of experience, knowledge and integrity, guarantees the success of our customers.
