Hi all I think it's fairly accepted that pagans want to do their bit to help out with the environment. One thing that doesn't (as far as I am aware) exist at the moment, is a membership organisation that gets groups of pagans together to go out and help with conservation volunteering, e.g. Coppicing, maintaining woodland, giving organic farms a hand, helping with site maintenance on nature reserves etc. I've put together a fairly basic site at www.peva.cjb.net - if others on here are interested in coming a helping to make the planet nicer (whilst also boosting the public image of paganism), then pop over and join the e-group. As soon as I can sort it, I'll get memberships going at £10 annually, to pay for promotion, stalls at pagan conferences, etc.

Nice idea No, I don't think there is such an organisation, though there are pagan groups who do conservation work off their own bat. I've done stuff with BTCV and the National Trust over the years, but don't have many weekends free to take part now.

I think thats a great idea I used to do some local volunteering with BTCV, which I really enjoyed, but real life has got in the way of it since I started working nights.
