📝 Detailed information
🏢 About the local organisation
The municipality of Haunsheim is more than happy to host its first international workcamp. There are several tasks which you can help fulfill and the local community is ready to welcome you with open arms and is keen to learn about your different cultures.
💼 What the programme involves
In this camp you will help out the local community by renovating a barn house which was erected in the middle ages and is part of the local cultural heritage. This will include manual work of course, and will be guided when needed.
Furthermore, you can help the environment by fostering and raising a "natural hedge" made of plants, some of which with healing properties. This hedge will also serve as a place of shelter for animals. At some parts along the hedge you will also help build a dry-stone wall. All the work will contribute to make Haunsheim more attractive, helping the environment and wildlife at the same time.
🏠 Accommodation on site
You will be accommodated in an empty apartment with adequate space for you. You will still need to bring your own sleeping bags.
There will also be a place for you to cook and take showers in the nearby clubhouse and the local sportshall.
