Volunteering on an organic farm in England experiencing nature conservation

Volunteering with Ambios offers a unique opportunity for people to connect with nature, whilst making a useful contribution to the conservation of the South Devon Landscape. Our volunteers are mostly based at Lower Sharpham Farm, our organic farm in the idyllic Dart River Valley. They will spend time in the open air, engaging with the natural environment, learning practical conservation skills and meeting like-minded people.

Our previous volunteer projects have ranged from organising a series of ‘citizen science’ BioBlitz 24-hour wildlife surveys across Devon, to using emerging ‘eco-therapy’ to help young people experiencing mental distress.  Ad hoc volunteering events also happen from time to time. Follow us on Facebook or Twitter if you want to keep informed.
