Welcome Volunteers!

Come connect in deep nature in the mountain region of Cerro Nara, Costa Rica.   Live on the mountain, and experience true jungle and primordial rainforest.  Even though we are deep in the rainforest, Manuel Antonio Beach is just 30 minutes away.

Activities include:

~ Collecting Trees for Planting: Travel with us to pick up trees in local communities. Visit indigenous tribal communities and work with tribal volunteers

~ Building Greenhouse Spaces:  Help build nurseries and greenhouses for rare species of trees and plants for seed-banking and restoration work.

~ Work in the Nursery: Organizing trees, watering, maintenance and gardening for our food production.

~ Exciting Camera Grant Project: Help install cameras in the rainforest, for wildlife observation and research.

What you will learn and experience:

Volunteering with Team Cerro Nara will give you boots-on-the-ground experience in Analog Forestryconnection with local communities, and tribal groups working with us to restore devastated areas, and enhance areas within the Wildlife Corridor of the Zona de Protectora de Cerro Nara.

We have the place to do it all.

 We are 800 meters above sea level, between 3 different life zones, on one mountain, at the border of the interior of the country and the Pacific Ocean, near Manuel Antonio National Park.  The property is 1000 acres and Team Cerro Nara manages over 5,200 acres of Pro Nara Association private Rainforest Lands; essentially the entire mountain of Cerro Nara is part of our conservation and restoration charter.
