Landscape Technician Jobs in Kansas

A Landscape Technician is a professional who specializes in creating and maintaining aesthetically pleasing and sustainable outdoor spaces. Their roles are diverse, ranging from installing and maintaining lawns, gardens, trees, shrubs, and other plant life to designing and maintaining hardscape elements like patios, walkways, and water features. These professionals are also responsible for tasks like irrigation system setup and maintenance, pest and weed control, and soil preparation and fertilization. They work closely with landscape designers or landscape architects, and their work often involves using a variety of tools and heavy machinery.

To be successful in this role, a Landscape Technician should have a strong understanding of horticulture and knowledge in areas like irrigation and pesticide use. Essential skills include attention to detail, physical stamina, and proficiency in using a variety of landscaping tools and equipment. Many employers prefer candidates with a certification in landscaping or a related field, such as the Certified Landscape Technician (CLT) or Certified Arborist. Prior to becoming a Landscape Technician, a person might have roles like Landscape Laborer, Garden Center Associate, or Groundskeeper, which provide valuable hands-on experience in the landscaping industry.
