Share what outdoor jobs you've done, or just know a bit about, so other anons can get ideas if they like to have cool outdoor jobs
>treeplanting
mainly done in commonwealth countries and nordic ones due to environmental attitudes. Here in canada it's a big industry, the season is spring and summer, you can rake in a lot of money since it's piece work, you'll be living in a bushcamp with 30 to 60 other young people for months so there is definitely a party culture, I 100% recommend it and it's dead easy to apply for.
>produce picking
Strawberries, blueberries, cherry's etc. These farms always hire lots of migrants and hippies. It's easy work and nice to be outside, stress free. Not really that /out/ but it's adjacent.
>wildfire jobs
Often the government or company will pay for your training and theres lots of positions to get into. Being the actual firefighters is the hardest but still easy to get if you're fit, way way easier than a normal fire fighter. Again it's seasonal/contract work so it's a good lifestyle. Look for a position on a mop up crew which just goes in after the fire and cleans up, you get to ride helicopters and travel, it's a good job.
>park maintenance
Fix up the cabins, maintain trails etc. These ones are hard to find for me for some reason so if some anon knows a website or something. I know people who've done it and it sounds great.
