Description
To apply send an EMAIL with your motivation and your profile (skills, interests...) to: volunteering@etudesetchantiers.org Please called the email by the title of the project. At the Natural Market Gardens of Grigny, volunteers and employees have been collaborating for over 10 years on vegetable farming, construction, and landscape development projects. This year, volunteers will help improve the farm's facilities for welcoming the general public by creating a new rest area. This will involve building wooden furniture like benches and picnic tables, under the guidance of a technical supervisor. Participants will learn about sustainable construction techniques, as well as the basics of market gardening and permaculture, discovering environmentally friendly farming practices.
Accommodation, food and transport arrangements
Volunteers will be accommodated in individual tents in a shaded area of the farm park, close to the association’s communal living facilities: kitchen, marquee, showers, toilets, and gathering spaces.
