Frequently Asked Questions

Not necessarily. If you enjoy working outdoors and are willing to work hard, you can start without experience. You will learn a lot on the job and receive guidance from experienced colleagues. AB Midden Nederland also offers short training courses.
A gardener usually works on private gardens, while a green maintenance worker focuses on public green spaces such as parks and roadside verges. The tasks are similar, but the work environment and projects are different.
