WE ARE NOT HIRING RIGHT NOW.

But volunteers are welcome!

For nearly 30 years, T.R.E.E. (Teaching Responsible Earth Education) has helped New Orleans-area students build a real, lasting connection to the natural world — through Earthkeepers, our 4th grade day program, and Sunship Earth and Sunship III, our residential programs for 5th and 7th graders. We often need volunteers to help out on the trail, in the kitchen or the office. If interested in volunteering now through May 2027, please send an email to tree@treetalk.org.

WE HIRE earth EDUCATORS MOST YEARS full and part time. pOSTS GO UP IN JULY, HIRE IN AUGUST, AND START TRAINING IN SEPTEMBER. IF INTERESTED IN APPLYING IN THE FUTURE…

First, read “T.R.E.E.: A Commitment to Quality Education” and “So You Want to Be an Earth Educator.”

Because our educators work directly with children, an offer of employment is contingent on a satisfactory criminal background check.

T.R.E.E. does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, religion, national origin, sex, age, disability, or veteran status in employment or in its programs and activities.

Teaching Responsible Earth Education (T.R.E.E.) is a nonprofit founded to engage students in science and nature and to model educational communities of kindness. T.R.E.E.’s main goals are to open minds to how our planet Earth operates, including its interconnectedness, and to provide opportunities that build confidence and independence. An Earth Educator is essential to ensuring that each T.R.E.E. participant knows that what they do matters and that they individually matter. An Earth Educator does this by learning not just comprehensive program activity roles, but also by understanding and implementing carefully designed teaching approaches that incorporate the head, heart, and hands of all learners.
