📝 Detailed information
🏢 About the local organisation
Located in Auvergne near Thiers, Orleat spreads over more than 25km² where we can find many ponds. The municipality wishes to welcome young volunteers to its valorisation program of the ponds located on the trail routes.
💼 What the programme involves
In 2022, the municipality began to develop the Grole pond by creating a user-friendly area.
This year, it plans to continue clearing brush the around the recreation area. Work on clearing brush and laying out will be necessary to make the area around the pond accessible again. Vegetale waste will be removed with a dumpster, emptied daily.
Your work will allow the municipality to think about the landscaping in order to make the place as aesthetic, safe and eco-friendly as possible.
Then you will remove the vegetal on the other part of the pond in order to allow a regular maintenance in the future.
You will work 4 to 5 hours a day. An employee of the municipal services will come to follow the progress.
Local volunteers will come to meet you and lend a hand.
