📝 Detailed information

🏢 About the local organisation

💼 What the programme involves

With the advice of a professional technician and the help of local inhabitants, you will take part in the maintenance of the banks: you will have a lot to do after the floods the village experienced this winter! Maintenance of the banks and wetlands: cutting and removal of vegetation, strengthening of the banks, cleaning, small installations (benches, log stairs…) Intervention with manual tools is preferred: secateurs, saws, branch cutters ... in order to preserve this fragile environment.

Many meeting times will be planned with the inhabitants: meals, animations with the children of the school, local associations...
