The Center for Natural Lands Management (CNLM) is a nonprofit 501(3)(c) organization, created in 1990, whose mission is the perpetual stewardship of natural and created
conservation lands, sensitive species, and their resident ecosystems. Stewardship activities are currently divided between California and Washington. In the State of Washington, CNLM’s South Puget Sound Program focuses on conservation of one of the rarest ecosystems in the United States, the prairie and oak woodlands of Cascadia, especially those lands and habitats within the South Sound Region. In that Region, the Program aims to protect, restore habitats, and support recovery of rare species that are candidates for federal listing.
Currently in California, more than seventy-five preserves, encompassing over 30,000 acres throughout the state, are within CNLM’s portfolio, with new preserves added regularly. The preserves vary in size from three to thousands of acres and are managed under direct ownership, conservation easements, or contracts.
The Native Seed Farm Crew Member (Technician) will be responsible for assisting in the production of native plant seeds and plugs for use in natural land restoration. The Technician’s time will be split among CNLM’s outdoor farms and nursery sites in South Thurston County. Tasks may include all aspects of farm labor, collection and processing of native plant seed, sowing and maintaining native plant plugs, nursery maintenance, development of seed harvesting techniques and data management. The Technician will work with and occasionally lead a team consisting of staff, partner agencies, contractors and volunteers.
This position entails a high-level of responsibility and interpersonal skills, sound work ethic, and positive attitude during long field days in all weather. Development of positive and effective relationships with volunteers and partners is critical. The Technician must also be able to work independently, completing substantial tasks without direct supervision. The nursery program is science based and the Technician will be required to document and appropriately file all data pertinent to the operations on a regular basis.
The Technician is expected to be an integral member of the CNLM’s South Sound Program. They will become a staff information source on plant propagation, seed production, and processing. In addition, the Technician may be available to conduct additional restoration and conservation work in the area if needed. This may include activities such as: weed control with herbicides, training and participation as part of a prescribed fire crew, and administrative duties.
