Join us in making a real impact toward a more sustainable world! Collaborate with the local community in promoting traditional and eco-friendly agricultural practices. Your participation in our volunteer program enables you to contribute directly to environmental preservation and community livelihood. Depending on the time of year, you will learn and help with the harvest of seasonal crops. We’ll mainly collaborate with a bio farm in mainland Syros, but we will also work on other locations, including our small plot on base. Together with other volunteers, you might be required to do some light maintenance work around the base. *Due to the nature of the work, activities are subject to change or cancellation depending on the island’s weather conditions.
