Organic Vegetable Gardens at Sieben Linden Ecovillage (8 months) in 2026
GEN-Deutschland - Netzwerk für Gemeinschaften e.V.
Siedlungsgenossenschaft Ökodorf e.G.
Beetzendorf, Alemania
Descripción
Being outdoors and growing food for the community will be your daily task. As you start in spring you will experience a full growing season, from the seedling to the harvest. The garden team grows more than 50 different types of vegetables, fruits and herbs using different growing techniques and a variety of tools that you will learn. Interested in getting your hands dirty and working with your whole body? Personal projects are free for you to choose, using your own creativity and skills. However, the project should have either a direct link to sustainability or a clear solidarity aspect. You can hook onto an existing project in Sieben Linden (or the region) or start something new. It is a great opportunity to try something that doesn’t have to be related directly to your work placement and to recognize or improve your individual skills.
Alojamiento, manutención y transporte
You will be part of the group of young volunteers called JuLe (German for “young people”) and live together in one area of the village (“JuLe-Platz”) creating your own living space together with shared caravans and kitchen. One afternoon per week by a team of experienced facilitators offers time and space to get to know each other as well as permanent young residents. Different methods will be used to work on inner processes and communication including fun and creativity. Being in a very rural area, there's a bus stop connecting to Wolfsburg and other bigger cities from there.

German linguistic support is provided as needed by the participants. There's two mandatory trainings organised by the German National Agency, On-Arrival and Mid-Term training.
