About the project

📝 Detailed information

🏢 About the local organisation

Montricoux international workcamp will take you deep into the warm wonders of south western medieval cities. This reconstruction project that associates international and french volunteers will be full of discoveries. Alongside the work, you will be accompanied by dynamic facilitators in order to organise activities and visits in the area. A close link with local organisation will allow you to present your country to local people and to spend time with French teenagers.

💼 What the programme involves

You will convert new plots for the community garden by clearing the pieces of land as well as some of the paths leading to the garden and around the village. Some of the dry stone walls holding the plots will need reconstruction and you will discover the traditional technique of building walls without any binder with the help of an old man of the village.

🏠 Accommodation on site

You will be hosted at the local campsite close to the centre. You will sleep in shared tents and have access to all the campsite's services such as the swimming pool, volleyball area, and “pétanque” field. You will prepare your own meals in groups every day following certain consumption ethics we wish to set up on our projects.
