Description

Sustainable development, in particular permaculture, is a theme rooted in the association's values, and one that cuts across all our actions. For this reason, Maison des Bateleurs-Solidarités Jeunesses has been working for several years on the creation of an environmental pole: a plant protection basin, dry toilets, compost, an organic garden and the use of surrounding natural resources are just a few examples.

Accommodation, food and transport arrangements

Collective dormitory and/or single rooms at the Maison des Bateleurs. Food will be provided, and meals will be prepared, in turn, by you, while respecting the values of sustainable development and the culture of each person. (families and international volunteers present).

Training during the activity

During this workcamp, you'll play an active part in the life of the Maison and its various activities: collective life, intercultural exchanges, etc. The aim of this workcamp is to raise your awareness of sustainable development through intergenerational exchanges and knowledge transfer. The work will mainly involve maintaining the Maison's vegetable garden (sowing, transplanting, hoeing, watering, harvesting, processing) and preparing the ground for spring planting. You'll also help maintain the compost bins, the plant protection basin, the henhouse, the insect hotel, the bat nests ...
