Why become a volunteer?

We welcome volunteers from all over the world who have an interest in organic horticulture. As a volunteer you need to have a willingness to learn from our staff and plenty of energy to work as part of our team. You will gain experience in a varied Organic horticultural environment from vegetable and seed cultivation to Orchard maintenance and propagation. Most importantly, you will be helping us in our work promoting the use of our plant genetic resources.
