Program Information

The Rain Bird BioTrek Project is an educational experience for visitors of all ages that emphasizes the need to share knowledge, values, and behaviors that support sustainability on a finite Earth. In its greenhouse, gardens, and stations, it provides interactive educational connections to the tropical rainforest, California's indigeneous plants and people, and other ancient and present day habitats.

Note for College Corps Fellows: The Fellows will typically be able to serve between 7 am and 4 pm Monday-Friday and on select Saturdays throughout the term.
