Sweet! Sounds like a great job.

"There is one, and only one, solution, and we have almost no time to try it. We must turn all our resources to repairing the natural world,and train all our young people to help. They want to.
We need to give them this last chance to create forests, soils, clean waters, clean energies, secure communities,stable regions, and to know how to do it from hands-on experience"
"...the greatest change we need to make is from consumption to production, even if on a small scale, in our own gardens. If only 10% of us do this, there is enough for everyone.
Hence the futility of revolutionaries who have no gardens, who depend on the very system they attack, and who produce words and bullets, not food and shelter."

There's a big new position at the museum (Manager of Interpretive Gardens) that's just been announced -- for head of all the new North Campus garden and is a supervisory/management type position. They're probably going to look widely, and using a search agency.
