Hi! My name is Ben Heemstra, and I am from Central Pennsylvania. I have a two year degree in Turfgrass Sciences from Penn State University, completed during the Summer of 2023. I am moving to the Myrtle Beach, SC area at the end of this summer. The extent of my work experience is largely in the baseball world, however I am hoping to step into a different side of the industry. I am open to roles on golf courses, sod farms, universities or school districts, or even lawn care businesses. If anyone reading this has any connections to anyone in the industry near the Myrtle Beach area, any help would be greatly appreciated! Feel free to shoot an email to btheemstra@gmail, or send a message to (570) 847-5756. Thank you!
