A Groundskeeper in the landscaping industry plays an integral role in maintaining the aesthetic and functional aspects of outdoor spaces. They are responsible for a wide variety of tasks which may include mowing lawns, pruning trees and shrubs, fertilizing plants, maintaining irrigation systems, and removing waste and litter.
