UNIQUE DIRECTORY OF SUSTAINABLE LEARNING,  
EMPLOYMENT & VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITIES  
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 

Are you looking for something unique to do this summer?  
Looking for a summer job; a great (but affordable) travel  
experience -- or just a one-day workshop or getaway? 

A number of Sustainable Living, Ecological, and Organic 
Learning Centres have sprung up across Canada and the  
USA. For the first time, many of them are listed in one  
place. The first edition of the Learning Centres & 
Places Directory is now on-line at:  
http://www.planetfriendly.net/learningcentres.html 

On this page you will find a diversity of places where  
you can get back in touch with nature and gain new  
experiences, skills and inspiration. You will find  
sustainable living education centres, organic farms &  
gardens, nature retreats, strawbale homes, wilderness  
trips, solar power, ecovillages, permaculture and more.  

You can participate in -- or help with -- guided tours,  
demonstrations, workshops, courses, outdoor activities,  
school programs, volunteer/barter opportunities,  
apprenticeships and site rentals. Many of these centres  
offer work-exchange opportunities -- you offer your  
help in return for accommodation, food, tuition and/or  
mentorship, for anywhere from a day to an entire year.  
Some also offer employment, a stipend or other benefits. 

Here is the index, followed by links to several other
unique directories, also available for free at 
planetfriendly.net:
