There are a variety of tasks that you will be expected to learn quickly when you start out in the landscaping business. Mulching is one of them! Be sure to familiarize yourself by doing research beforehand. If you have no formal education or experience, you can start by practicing in your yard or offer to do yard work for others. Many people get into landscaping by starting a lawn business, trimming grass, weed eating and planting trees. Make sure you are familiar with basic terminology before your interview. If they ask you a question about something you have no experience doing, let them know that you are excited to learn! Share your experience, even if it is limited, to show you can learn new skills quickly and easily.
