💼 What the programme involves
The work will consist in removing invasive plants and carrying them off to stop them grow again and choke all the other vegetation. The concerned area is between the sea and the lake, on sandy soil. The syndicate is also running the “Lake’s House” with an exhibition. There will be visits and information meetings for participants in order to discover and be sensitized for this exceptional environment.
Some time of the workcamp will allow you to discover and work on other techniques and locations, as some improvement work at the center that welcomes you (painting, design) as well as a support for the local association for cultural heritage that is restoring the ruins of Leucate's old castle.
