A Guide to Horticulture Jobs Abroad

Popular Locations for Horticulture Jobs Abroad

Most countries and regions in the world produce important crops, whether it be food, flowers, or wild plants. Because of this, horticulture is a field to work in nearly anywhere on our planet. Depending on which direction within horticulture you choose to follow, opportunities are aplenty.

Many destinations for international horticulture jobs are located in South America. Countries such as Colombia and Peru (large producers of fruits, vegetables, and many diverse plants) allow workers to explore new techniques and practices, while experiencing a completely new and different job experience. With native staples like potatoes, and some of the most fertile soil in the world for growing food, South America is an exciting place for the field of horticulture.

If you are keen on hiking, experiencing nature, and working outside, New Zealand is full of opportunity for jobs in horticulture, especially in groundskeeping, gardening, and landscape design. Whether you are looking to work horticulture jobs abroad in a city or a little more removed from town, New Zealand is quite a place to be. Auckland offers the city life while still presenting ample opportunity to visit beaches and hike on trails nearby. On the other hand, Queenstown is the place to be if you’re looking to get out of town and adventure: here, skiing, backpacking, and skydiving are just a few of the activities you can participate in. A nation with diverse landscape, a unique climate, and new cultural experiences, New Zealand is a great place to gain global work experience. 

Europe is also filled with horticulture job opportunities. Whether you are looking to spend time in Italy, France, England, or more, you will not be disappointed. Not only can you learn about wine (hello, vineyard cultivation), garden management in England, and botany in Amsterdam, you can also brush up on your language skills and create valuable connections. From gardening to food production, on small to large scale farms, the international experience and professional development you will gain will go unrivaled.
