Bioconstruction in Ascara

The facilities in Ascara are: For lodging we have 8 tents, each with space for 4 people set up in a fenced-off and sheltered field by the church in the centre of the village. There are showers and toilets (portacabins) in the campground and there is electricity and water. The kitchen tent is also in the field and has tables, benches and seats. You can use this common space when you like and it will be great for socialising, doing activities and workshops and cooking together. The kitchen is fully equipped with cookers, fridge, freezer and everything needed for cooking. Finally we have the use of the Ascara village social centre. This is for eating our meals and has a bar with soft drinks, a coffee machine, a wood stove, table tennis, board games, table football and space for up to 50 people. The library next door has internet with wifi, computers and, of course plenty of books. FOOD There will be a professional person running the workcamp. The volunteers will be expected to participate in the day to day running of the vegetable garden and, of course, will be able to enjoy cooking and eating the garden products. There will be a rota for clearing tables, washing up and cleaning the common area. It is essential that we know any allergies and food intolerancies the volunteers might have and whether they are vegetarians or vegans.
