Meet Becky Schmidt

“I started in Landcare as a student worker, and I had a great time working alongside nice, smart, motivated people. I was hired on full time in 2005, and I’ve been here ever since.

“My job was easy enough to learn, but there are always new challenges. I love working outdoors on our beautiful campus. 

“We can take overtime as additional pay or save it as additional vacation time. That’s a huge benefit of working here.”—Becky Schmidt, Irrigation Technician, Teamsters Local 320
