About the project

ESC: SJESC14 - Wood Stock 1

📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

Join Wood Stock ‘26, a creative and hands-on workcamp dedicated to woodcraft and reuse, set in the unique surroundings of our castle. This project invites you to work with your hands, share skills and give new life to wood through renovation and upcycling. From restoring traditional wooden window shutters with ecological DIY paint, to creating furniture from reclaimed pallets, you’ll help preserve the character of the place while embracing sustainable practices. A project rooted in craftsmanship, creativity and collective energy!

🏠 Accommodation on site

You will be accommodated in various shared sleeping rooms for 4 to 8 people at Château du Créneau. Please note that Wi-Fi is not available on site. You and the other participants will prepare the food in the château kitchen in groups, with the support of the kitchen supervisors. The majority of meals are vegetarian, with two meals per week containing meat and/or fish.

🎒 Leisure activities

Participants will mainly work with wood, focusing on renovating the castle’s wooden window shutters. This will involve repairing damaged elements, fixing hinges, sanding, treating surfaces and, and crafting new shutters when needed. They will also prepare their own paint made with flour and natural pigments. In parallel, the group will design and build simple, functional furniture from recycled pallets. Tasks will include dismantling and preparing wood, taking measurements, cutting, assembling and finishing.

⚠️ Requirements

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).
