travelling to nuqui

I am interested in travelling to nuqui to take part in a volunteer program at el emargal biological station. My problem is that i do not know how to get from medellin to nuqui(return) and how much this may cost. I have heard that there is a flight service to nuqui, (possibly on Satina, - spelling?)Does anyone have any imformation on fights, the area of nuqui etc?
Also, does anyone know of any other volunteer opportunities in Colombia for a young man interested in conservation and the environment? Any imfo would be greatly appreciated.

A Beautiful and Dirt Poor Place It's Satena that flies Medellin to Nuqui but only a couple times a week-they have a site somewhere if you can read Spanish.
How is your Spanish BTW-there ain't no Ingles in Nuqui!
