Green Acres Landscape, Inc was invited to participate at the Cascade High School Regional Career Fair in conjunction with Willamette ESD in Turner, Oregon on April 24, 2025. Students from eight surrounding rural high schools attended to engage with over 70 representatives from a multitude of career fields. It was such a success that a teacher from Jefferson High School shared the following, “What a great turn out of exhibitors and outside events! Our students had a great time, and I have heard from several students that they came away with some new ideas about opportunities they had never thought of. EYES OPEN! Can’t ask for much more than that right?” This event has grown immensely in just the 3 years that Green Acres Landscape has attended; starting in the small gym and now being held in the school’s main gym and the outside parking lot. We are truly grateful for this partnership and the opportunity to share with our local youth on what we do and all the various opportunities in our career field; design, install, maintenance, irrigation, lighting, sales, relations, and human resources. We have been able to hire students that showed interest in our field and even provide them with work experience they might not have gained anywhere else. Our relations professional has been able to build relationships with the students over the past few years attending the career fairs that they come and find our booth just to say hi and let us know they are excited to graduate from school and hopefully start their next chapter in life. Green Acres Landscape and our employees look forward to attending the next career fair at Cascade High School.
