Beaumont Botanical
Garden is around 23 acres of trees, various types of flower beds and a
pond with a waterfall. There is a 10,000 square foot Conservatory and a
2300 square foot propagation house. There is
a magnificent garden center with a commercial kitchen and a hall that
seats 400. A special brides dressing room. We average 35 weddings a year
in the facility. There are all kinds of native plants a large OGR bed
and another large rose bed with Hybrid Teas
and Floribundas. We are putting in an American Rose Society AOE bed to
test grow new miniature and miniflora roses not yet on the market. There
are 4 full time gardeners to keep up the grounds and work as assigned
by the HD. Many of the flower beds are taken
care of by the garden club that sponsors it. I take care of the rose
garden.
The 13 clubs make up
the Beaumont Council of Garden Clubs. We have an executive council that
oversees the business of BCGC. We have a monthly meeting to discuss the
business at hand.
The HD can make purchases up to $2500 without approval. We are a self-funding non-profit organization.
Based upon the qualifications of the individual the pay can range from $48,000 to $70,000.
Expectations are for
this person to be the leader with creative ideas to make theBeaumont
Botanical Gardens and eye pooper. Creative, energetic and a people
person.
We will provide the resources and man or woman power for this individual to achieve that goal.
Beaumont Botanical
Gardens sits in Tyrrell Park which also has an 18 hole golf course,
cattail marsh, and riding stables. We have around 15,000
visitors/annually.
This is a tremendous opportunity for a person to put to work that ingenuity and creativity to work.
