Your Seasonal Tree Nursery H2-A Staffing Solution
Overlook Harvesting has helped tree nurseries and other growers get reliable, seasonal labor since 2006. Based on our own family’s experience in the fields, we’ve developed solutions to help you secure H2-A labor, streamline compliance and reduce administrative workload. We stand out among seasonal tree nursery recruitment agencies because we let you focus on your crop, not paperwork.
Our H-2A Solutions for Your Tree Nursery
Vetting and H2-A Workforce Supply
With a large network of tree nursery H-2A workers, we have teams ready to work. Our network includes workers who have the strength and experience to handle high-value tree stock. We will provide you with the right number of workers, even for large operations.
Training for Tree Nursery Operations
We provide safety training and orientation to prepare our workforce. We also offer job-specific training to help your seasonal crews meet tree nursery deadlines.
H2-A Petition Filing
Let us handle the time-intensive task of filing H-2A petitions each year. With decades of experience managing H-2A filings and timelines, we help keep the process organized, accurate and aligned with current requirements.
Transportation and Housing
We’re proud of our fleet of buses, which are DOT-inspected and maintained by trusted professionals to ensure reliable transport for our crews. We also invest in compliant, free housing for your workers, so you don’t have to sort out living arrangements.
Payroll and Documentation
With electronic timekeeping, you get timely and accurate payroll every cycle. We handle payroll documentation and manage compliance records, including employment verification and petition documents, to keep you audit-ready.
Insurance
We secure workers’ compensation coverage for our seasonal nursery workers and liability coverage on all vehicles. This coverage supports our workforce’s well-being and gives operations a layer of financial protection.
On-Site Management
Hardworking crew leaders are on-site with our workers every day. Our crew leaders manage the changes required for shifting weather and long planting projects, helping your business maximize production efficiency and stay on schedule.
Why We Stand Out Among H-2A Tree Nursery Staffing Contractors
Overlook Harvesting builds long-term relationships with tree nurseries because we offer:

Whether you need workers who can operate digging equipment or someone who understands how to prevent bark abrasions and protect tree roots, you can count on us as your turnkey partner.
- Honest, reliable service: Generations of our family have worked as farmers and growers, building partnerships based on trust and integrity. We stay true to that legacy today and care for your nursery as if it were our own.
