💼 What the programme involves

Interform e.V., the integrative environmental education facilities at the old brickworks in Gahlen, is a meeting place and workspace for many different groups of people. As participants of this international workcamp, you can get involved in the following projects, depending on your interests: ecological harvesting of vegetables and herbs in permaculture, composting organic waste such as leaves and trees, laying down raised flower beds and shelters using hay bales and loam, planting green roofs, shaping protective hedges, designing a ruin garden, harvesting plants and food, securing seeds for reproduction, garden and landscape art (LandArt) with natural, retro and recycling materials, painting, and even preparing the harvested food to make your own food during open meetings and projects.

🏠 Accommodation on site

You will be staying in bungalows. The group will prepare and cook meals together.

📍 About the location

You'll spend your workcamp right in the middle of nature on the paradise that is the old brickworks and its grounds. You're invited to try out every kind of outdoor activity available to you: swimming in the lake or small pool, cycling, playing football and table tennis, and - during the evenings - sitting around the campfire to watch the stars. There's a lake for swimming nearby that's easily reachable by bike. Besides this, there are also cats and sheep in the area who might be ready to go for a walk with you! And of course, you could cycle into the nearby small towns of Calau or Gahlen in the evenings, or even travel to Berlin, Dresden, Leipzig, Poland or the Czech Republic at the weekend.

⚠️ Requirements

This camp is particularly aimed at nature lovers.
