Job description
The Benedictine Abbey of Admont was founded in 1074 and is located in the lower Enns Valley in the heart of Austria.

In the 2,500 m² glasshouses of the Admont Abbey nursery, fragrant flowers and herbs grow alongside vigorous young vegetable plants. With all their knowledge and the right instinct, they look after our plants from the first awakening to the sale. For them, sustainable cultivation means harmonising human will and natural development. To protect plants from pests, they therefore rely on beneficial animals instead of chemical pesticides.
