The Monteverde Butterfly Garden is seeking volunteers! We are an environmental education center located in Monteverde, Costa Rica that specializes in insects and spiders. We have a year-round need for volunteer tour guides, who educate the public about these fascinating creatures. As a guide you are expected to give 1 to 4 tours each day, help at reception, and perform general maintenance of the facility. During the tours you are encouraged to handle insects (though it is not absolutely required) and express enthusiasm for your subject. In exchange, we can offer housing and food for three volunteers. This is a great opportunity for students, recent graduates, or anyone looking to get more experience with arthropod natural history and taxonomy.
