Volunteer Opportunities
Come experience Wilding Education in the most hands-on way possible! We are currently looking for volunteers to join us this summer as we work to bring Nature connection into the lives of our communities. As a volunteer, you can expect to be engaged in the many different elements of outdoor mentoring, whether this looks like helping our staff organize a game, lead a lesson on plant identification, or reign in a group of excited and muddy kids. We will give you skills and techniques to help you grow into a better mentor, all in the backdrop of a fun, empowering, and constantly-evolving atmosphere. Prior experience working with youth is a plus, but definitely not a requirement. Please contact our volunteer coordinator at admin@wildingeducation.org you are interested or have any questions!
Volunteer Requirements:
at least 14 years old
able to arrange transportation to/from the parks
excited about connecting with Nature
interested in learning to mentor youth via games, stories, challenges, songs, insightful questioning, and immersion in the great outdoors
able to adapt and “go with the flow”
