Orc religion tends to very shamanistic in nature and organized more on a tribal level than a cultural one. Even the same entity might have a different appearance between two different tribes (and two tribes might actually be brought into conflict over a slight difference of opinion) and some reclusive tribe might even have different names for the three chief entities in their culture. That does not even include minor entities.
Despite the tribal nature of their faith, orcs however are not worshippers of nature. While it is not unheard of for the rare orc to leave his tribe and live in harmony with nature, the militant nature of orc culture leads to them often ravaging their location of any and all resources to continue their constant desire to wage war. In fact, they often find themselves in direct conflict with druids as they have no qualms exploiting the sacred, old places of the world.
