Tree Planting Volunteer Abroad Programs

Tree planting is a long lost tradition that used to be implemented by everyone in society. By better informing yourself on the practice you can restore this tradition, and learn to become more self sufficient. Today’s eating habits and food production processes have left a large population of the world sick and unhealthy. By traveling abroad to learn various gardening tactics, you will be opened up to a whole new culture of food production and consumption. This valuable knowledge you acquire while abroad can then be applied to your own community to help instill better eating habits in your hometown.

Volunteering abroad in tree planting can be both affordable and fulfilling. Many tree planting volunteer programs cost close to nothing and may offer a place to stay and free meals in exchange for your volunteer work. Managing a farm, greenhouse, or large garden takes a lot of work, so farmers are often very appreciative of any help they can receive. By volunteering your time to help the maintenance of a farm or garden, you are sure to be paid back, if not in food and a place to sleep, then through an enriching experience and the satisfaction of having helped hard working people in need.

I volunteered with IVHQ for their Christmas program in Antigua, Guatemala. This was my first experience with IVHQ and I will definitely volunteer with them again. I stayed with a local family who were kind, thoughtful and made me feel right at home. The accommodations were modest but clean and comfortable. The Christmas program was a great experience because we had the opportunity to do a variety of activities including working with seniors and children, picking coffee beans, and a cultural immersion. I appreciate that IVHQ partners with local organizations on the ground.
