Aullwood is an Audubon Center operated by the National Audubon Society. We are ten miles north of Dayton, Ohio along the side of an outsized river valley that holds the Stillwater River . Our 350 acres of natural areas and organic farm provide outstanding learning opportunities in a diverse and beautiful setting. The land starts atop flat farmland and leads down through woods , prairie and field to the level of the river. Internships have been a part of our program for over thirty years.
Duties primarily take place on weekdays but also on some weekends and evenings.
All interns work with the public in program presentation, with animal care at the Nature Center and Farm, as well as with store operations, and maintenance. Our internships are designed to be interdisciplinary while allowing concentration in special areas . Interns receive a small stipend, housing, and professional training and experience. Field study and visits to other similar institutions help interns build a base of knowledge. In addition, working with the staff allows interns to learn professional skills and our organization's process.
