Want to volunteer unique skills or professional services?
We would be happy to talk about it! Please reach us via the Contact page.
Before you schedule a shift, please note:
-
Volunteer shifts are not tours. To schedule a tour, please contact us via the Contact page. That said, you will learn about tortoises and their care while you work!
-
All duties are performed during a shift as needed.
-
Shifts are generally an hour long, but staying longer is welcome and appreciated.
-
Volunteers must be 12 years or older. Ages 12-15 must be directly supervised by an accompanying adult. All shifts must be scheduled by adults.
-
Wear appropriate clothes for getting messy including closed-toed shoes. We may be using bleach to sanitize. Mud is common.
-
Bees and wasps are sometimes present.

Other ways to help
Just ask if it's something we need at the moment. Husbandry equipment
or tortoise food is often needed.
