GREEN LUNGS FOR THE DISTRICT

📝 Detailed information

🏢 About the local organisation

This is a growing experience that embraces differences and encourages self-discovery, all while teaching you useful skills ! Art and historical town, with an UNESCO abbatiale church and cloister, Moissac looks after his great medieval and modern age patrimony. This workcamp is incorporated within the framework of offering to the center district inhabitants green lungs through an old park from the railway to a viewing point in the heights. You will work alongside energetic hosts, and have multiple opportunities of cultural exchange as well as time to share meals with the hosting association's group and local volunteers.

💼 What the programme involves

We will open again an old path from downtown to the heights. The town has bought an old private park and wants to reopen a former footpath on this shady hill to reach a viewpoint indicator. We will have to cut small trees, to clear plants from the path, and remove all vegetables cut.

🏠 Accommodation on site

In several building at the site of NGO Moissac Solidarité (http://moissac-solidarite.fr/pages/). You will share the place all the week except on Sunday from 8 AM to 4 PM with local people involved in this organization. Shower, kitchen will also be on the same place.

📍 About the location

Moissac, between Toulouse and Bordeaux is located 80 km north of Toulouse. A passionate local host will teach you how to discover the local area, and wonderful patrimony. Moissac is on the way to Santiago de Compostela, near the Tarn river. During your free time, you will have the opportunity to go swimming and hiking, and to meet with the other volunteers from the workcamp and from Moissac.
