Help us with the research farm and education center in the jungle
The experience
Volunteers will have an opportunity to impact the lives of rural families through maintaining the research farm and education center. The produce grown on the farm is used to feed the children who attend our lunch and after school program. Volunteers will have opportunities to learn about sustainable jungle farming and better farming practices. Work entails cultivating, planting, pruning, harvesting and repairing fencing for the animals.
