About Golden Acre Garden Center

As Calgary’s largest gardening destination, Golden Acre has been inspiring generations of gardeners since 1967. Launched originally as a nursery, the company has transformed into a gardener’s mecca carrying almost 40,000 plants and gardening products.
Though one of the largest Home & Garden stores in Canada, Golden Acre is still a locally-owned “mom and pop” store.

Owners Nick and Alfredo are two childhood friends who grew up just moments away from the store. They believe in community stewardship and supporting local and Canadian suppliers. They have assembled a team of industry experts providing the knowledge and selection Calgarians have come to expect from this award winning garden center.

Golden Acre feels most strongly about creating a safe and respectable workplace for everyone. An environment where individuals can be comfortable and feel supported to be the best version of themselves. Our mantra is to welcome, provide knowledge and inspire.
Our staff strive to go above and beyond to ensure that our customers’ experience is always memorable.

While we do the vast majority of our hiring during the spring and summer seasons,
Golden Acre is always looking for skilled individuals year-round. 

We are looking for individuals who have  knowledge of horticulture, gardening and landscaping, experience in retail, and are personable.
If you feel you have these qualifications and what it takes to be a part of our team please send your resume to the email link below.
