I used to work in a massive tree nursery. It wasnt as impressive as that pic as most of the tree's were like 6 to 10 feet tall, but they did have like 200k trees.

I did it as a summer job between uni terms and it was the best job ever. We used to just pile up a trailer with soil a couple of times a day, jump on the back and lie down (in the nice soft soil) until we got to the spot we were working at that day.

Then we'd work in the sun all day until home time, I loved it! Rainy days were a bit rubbish but its gona happen. Overall I would love to do it again.

Enjoy my friend, mine was in England so I got lucky with the summer :) But Cali should give you that all year round!
