📝 Detailed information
💼 What the programme involves
In this project, a nature park area with a bee pasture and insect hotel is created in cooperation with the Mühlviertel Nature Park according to the motto "Preserve and promote nature, protect habitat for beneficial organisms and insects".
The herb garden, which is open to the public, is being reactivated, spring work is being carried out, and signage for visitors is being created.
Food is prepared fresh together by the volunteers every day, looking at: what is there, what can we already eat? What does nature give us? Herbs and wild plants are used in the kitchen or for storage (e.g. wild herb pesto, herb syrup, etc.). The project is accompanied by a nutritionist, beekeeper and mental coach. The harvested and self-produced products are made available to the local social centre.
🏠 Accommodation on site
This project is a group project, so you will live and work with other volunteers. The group will be accompanied by two group leaders who will act as support. Accommodation is in a house with shared rooms.
The food will be prepared together by the group. In addition, there is pocket money of 5€ per day for all volunteers, which is at your free disposal.
Travel to the project will be organised in consultation with our association.
🎒 Leisure activities
You will take part in an On-Arrival Training in the first two days after your arrival where you will get to know the group, reflect on your own strengths and goals and clarify everything you need for the coming month.
