About the project

📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

Based at an ecovillage community farm, you'll learn how to build a drying shed in the two weeks and support the farm in harvesting vegetables for the community! The drying shed will be used to save seeds and your contribution enhances the farm's resilience. Come join the volunteering team - maybe you want to stay for the year afterwards...

🏠 Accommodation on site

Accommodation is in own tents on the farm grounds. The Community Farm provides you with organic, local vegetables and we'll order wholefoods enough to keep you well fed. Everything in the village is within a 5 min walk, including a pharmacist, bookshop, cafe, and small supermarket.

🎒 Leisure activities

Upon your arrival you'll receive a tour of the ground for orientation. Furthermore you'll learn what is needed for a good drying shed and how to build it.

⚠️ Requirements

The Participant profile: If you like to work in a team, being out camping and using your hands to build, this project is for you! Only apply if you’re interested in healthy food and local food systems, and you’re keen to learn practical skills to address the climate and biodiversity crisis while experiencing community life in an Ecovillage.
Deadline: 22/07/2024 14:00

ℹ️ Additional information

The project is implemented under the European Solidarity Corps Programme, financed by the European Commission.
The participating organisations have to be mindful of these needs as they are responsible for providing a respectful and trusting hosting environment. At the same time, the organisations participating in the initiative devote a great deal of time, energy and resources to set up a high-quality activity; they should therefore expect that European Solidarity Corps participants show a similar level of respect for the local communities and the people that are directly concerned by the activities (https://youth.europa.eu/solidarity/mission_en).
