🏢 About the local organisation
Look forward to manual work in beautiful nature and open-hearted village life. This ecology-workcamp is a cooperation with the regional office for nature and landscape protection in Tuebingen and the regional organization for the preservation of the cultural heritage. Two hills of a former wine-growing area near the famous old university town of Tuebingen in Hirschau are well-known as a habitat for rare and endangered species and have been declared nature reserves. These areas have to be maintained regularly. Bushes and trees should not overrun vegetation, therefore shelters have to be built for protection.
