Ecuador Feedback

"It was quite like something you'd see on Gardening Channel meets ESPN, like Xtreme gardening or something. Very hard work, but so satisfying to see all the saplings find a home."

Meghan

"I spent a lot of time this week helping with an ongoing experiment looking at regenerating rainforest."

Matthew

"I was working in cloud forest conservation, developing a medicinal plant garden, a teaching garden filled with difficult to reach forest plants, helping put in the infrastructure for future volunteers, helping out on the farm (birthing piglets/milking cows!)"
