Szatyor Közösség a Környezettudatos Életmód Támogatásáért Egyesület
Mány, Hongarije
Beschrijving
Step into a rural learning space in Mány, Hungary, where a nature-based kindergarten and community farm are growing through collective effort. Here, your work has direct, visible impact: you help shape an environment where children learn from the land, animals are cared for responsibly, and sustainability is practiced daily. Your tasks include expanding a seedling greenhouse, supporting interior work in a mobile house, landscaping and developing garden areas, and caring daily for goats and donkeys. Please note that this program does NOT involve direct work with children. Through this work you gain practical skills in building with wood and cob, gardening and animal care, learn safe tool use, and experience how a community-based initiative operates.
