GREEN LUNGS FOR THE DISTRICT

📝 Detailed information

🏢 About the local organisation

You will participate in a fulfilling experience that embraces differences and self-discovery, as well as learning manual and useful skills! Art and historical town, with an UNESCO abbatiale church and cloister, Moissac look after his great medieval and modern age heritage. The aim of this workcamp is to give the center district's inhabitants a breath of fresh air by giving them access to an old park linking the railway to a viewpoint on the heights. You will work alongside energetic hosts, and have multiple opportunities of cultural exchange as well as the time to share meals with the local volunteers.

💼 What the programme involves

We will continue the work started by an international group of volunteers in 2017, it concerns the opening of an old path from downtown to the heights. The town has bought an old private park and wants to reopen the trail on this shady hill to reach a viewpoint. We will have to cut small trees, to clear plants from the path, and remove all trimmed greeneries.

🏠 Accommodation on site

In tents, in the local camp-site. You will cook in turns. A sanitary block and an outdoor kitchen will be available.
