About the project

📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

Join a living permaculture project at Torre Escribana, a demonstration centre near Zaragoza, Spain. Three volunteers will take part in flexible six-month placements, starting at different times between October 2026 and 2027.

🏠 Accommodation on site

You will participate in organic gardening, food forests, animal care, composting, biochar, environmental education, community activities and practical permaculture design. Tasks change with the seasons and combine outdoor work, learning and teamwork.

🎒 Leisure activities

Volunteers will learn by doing, contribute ideas and gradually take responsibility according to their interests and abilities. The project includes a full Permaculture Design Course (PDC). One place is especially open to a young person with fewer opportunities.

⚠️ Requirements

The Participant profile: Volunteers will live in an independent house at Torre Escribana, with a shared kitchen, living room and two bathrooms. Bedrooms may be private or shared, depending on individual needs and availability. Food support will be mixed: a weekly basket of vegetables and meat from the farm, some shared meals and a monthly allowance to buy additional food. Each volunteer will have access to a bicycle and can move around the local area by bike or on foot. Volunteers will also receive the daily pocket money established by the European Solidarity Corps.
Deadline: 30/09/2026 23:38

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).
