We offer the opportunity for volunteers and interns to learn about native flora of Belize and to interact with our friendly; knowledgeable Belizean staff. If you have a background in any type of plant science; you will find something to interest you here. If you don’t have experience and just want to learn; this is the place to do it! Let us know what you are looking for and we can plan your program here. If you are a student; talk to your University about possible credit for your time here. For more information contact: judy@belizebotanic.org.
