April Employee Spotlight
Juan Garcia
The Palafox family took the reign at Mission Hills Nursery 30 years ago this month, and Juan Garcia has been with us for 29 years! He is our ‘silent’ employee.
He does his job of keeping the nursery clean and the plants happy with watering and fertilizing.
At Christmas, he has taken on the task of training many others on how to install tree stands so when you get your Christmas Tree home it stays standing straight.
We appreciate Juan and are blessed to have him loyally with us for 29 years.
Lets get to know Juan a little better…
