Landscape Solutions officially launched its ‘Made with a Trade’ apprenticeship program on June 8 – an industry first initiative aimed at attracting more young people to a career in the landscaping trade.

Landscape Solutions, Australia’s leading full-service landscape company, currently employs 56 apprentices and intends to appoint another 50 over the next few years.

“We’re a dynamic company with big plans for the future, so an apprenticeship with Landscape Solutions will certainly provide many exciting and diverse career opportunities for the right people,” said Managing Director Tim Buckle (who also started out as an apprentice).

Lander Toyota, Blacktown is the major supporter of the program and has generously donated a Workmate Ute. The ute will be awarded to the ‘2012 Apprentice of the Year’.

Rod Cullen, Dealer Principal at Lander was onboard with the concept from day one. “We see the program as a unique incentive aimed at developing the youth of Australia. It also provides us with an alternative way to promote the Toyota Workmate Ute as the vehicle of choice for the Australian tradie.”
