HR software for Christmas tree farms
Christmas tree farms and holiday light displays have one of the shortest, busiest seasons of all: most of the year's revenue comes in between Thanksgiving and Christmas. August helps you hire and onboard a holiday crew in days, keep weekend schedules full and track every hour without paper timecards.
What makes staffing christmas tree farms hard
A season measured in weekends
You may only have six or seven weekends to make your year, so every shift needs to be covered.
Hiring right after fall
Many of your applicants just finished another seasonal job and need to get started fast.
Cold, outdoor work
Your crew is outside, so tools need to work on a phone with gloves nearby, not at a desk.
One platform for your whole season
Positions you can hire and schedule with August
Set up a team for each part of your operation, then hire, onboard and schedule each role in August.
Priced for seasonal businesses
$400 per year for the platform, plus $3 per month for each active employee or August ATS hire above the 15 included every month. You only pay for the busy months. Estimate your cost.

Do we pay for August when the season is over?
The platform fee is $400 per year. Usage fees only apply to active employees and August ATS hires above the 15 included each month, so quiet months cost little or nothing extra.
