One of the biggest new job orders on the US Department of Labor's official SeasonalJobs.dol.gov portal this autumn comes from Texas. Yellowstone Landscape - Central, Inc. has an ACTIVE H-2B order for 348 Landscape Laborers in Houston, Texas, paying $18.08 per hour, with no experience required. The season runs for ten months, from 18 January to 15 November 2027.
Because it is an H-2B job, the employer must cover visa fees and cannot charge recruitment fees, which makes it a genuine free visa sponsorship opportunity for eligible workers.

What the Work Involves
Landscape laborers keep commercial properties, parks and green spaces looking their best. According to the DOL listing, daily duties include:
- Watering, fertilising, digging, mowing and raking
- Pruning shrubs and trees, and core aerating lawns
- Planting and transplanting, seeding and laying sod
- Maintaining and repairing tools and equipment with hand and power tools
Houston is hot and humid for much of the year, and the listing notes that extreme heat, cold, rain or drought can affect working hours. Good fitness, a hat, sunscreen and plenty of water are part of the job.
Requirements
- No previous experience needed
- Able to lift and carry 50 lbs (about 23 kg) when necessary
- Saturday and Sunday work when necessary
- Employer-paid drug testing before starting work, and after hire in some cases
- E-Verify employment check; post-hire background checks may apply for some contracts
- A motor vehicle record check only for workers who drive company vehicles (driving is not required for every worker)
- Your country must be on the US government's yearly H-2B eligible countries list
Is This Free Visa Sponsorship?
Yes, under the H-2B rules. The H-2B regulations (20 CFR 655.20) require the employer to pay or reimburse visa and visa processing fees in the first workweek and ban recruitment fees charged to workers by the employer or its recruiters. Inbound travel and daily subsistence are reimbursed once you complete half of the season, and return travel is paid if you finish the contract or are dismissed early. The StateTally summary of the DOL data also lists lodging for this order; confirm housing costs and any deductions in the full job order before you sign.
How to Apply
- Step 1: Read the official listing and job order: https://seasonaljobs.dol.gov/jobs/H-400-26293-310892
- Step 2: Use the contacts shown by the DOL: call +1 386 437 6211, or apply through the Texas state job service at www.workintexas.com.
- Step 3: Prepare a short CV in English with your name, country, phone or WhatsApp number and any garden, farm, construction or outdoor work experience.
- Step 4: Confirm that you can work the full season from 18 January to 15 November 2027.
Tips to Stand Out
- Show you are fit and reliable. Outdoor crews value people who turn up every day, in all weather.
- Mention tools you know. Mowers, trimmers, blowers or any power tools are a plus, even if experience is not required.
- Say yes to weekends. The listing says weekend work is required when necessary.
- Apply early. Large orders still fill fast once interviews start.
Scam Warning
Never pay anyone for this job or for an H-2B visa. Recruitment fees are illegal under H-2B rules, and visa fees are the employer's cost. Contact the employer only through the details on the official DOL page. Anyone asking for money to "confirm" your place is a scammer.
