About the project

Let's Beautify the Fai Ecocenter 2

📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

You will work on the renovation of the old forge of the farm and outdoor facilities to improve the environmental and landscape quality of the site: construction of wooden fences to enclose the deposit of materials and our waste containers and building a dry stone retaining wall in the parking lot and stop the erosion of the slope. This project will initiate you into masonry and woodwork! Furthermore, a permaculture project will begin this year at the Fai farm! Those who wish may contribute to the work related to this project: development of the greenhouse (ventilation, insulation, siding, ...); wood construction (vermicompost, frame, insect house, perches, storage cabin, chassis, guardians); water management (rainwater harvesting, irrigation system, bearish).

📍 About the location

Leisure activities: As the Faï is surrounded by an extraordinary nature, it is an ideal place when it comes to discover mountain hiking and the rural villages with their peasant markets and local products. In the evenings you can organise games, film nights, international meals… You can also organise more “touristic” trips to the towns and villages of the region. Location: The Farm of the Faï (3km from the village of Saix, 30 km from the city of Gap) Closest train station: Veynes Dévoluy (18km)
