🏢 About the local organisation
Do you like nature ? Do you like to craft ? Come and help the town of Jarville-la-Malgrange to develop a family park in the heart of the city!
Located at the meeting point of several activity hubs (city center, schools, education centers, museums), the Renémont Wood is a real green lung for the city. Soon, a primary school group will be built on its outskirts, and an entrance will be made by this park. Unfortunately, this beautiful space is very little equipped for the promenade, communal events or leisure... This is why the municipality decided to conduct a vast study to rehabilitate it, redesign it and make it the new place of life and meeting of the whole population. For this, they need your help, because there is work to do !
💼 What the programme involves
The workcamp will be carried out in the context of the upgrading and decontamination of Renémont Wood, in connection with the recommendations made by the study of the National Forest Office. On the prorgamme: landscaping of natural areas (vegetation, various plantations, creation of paths for walkers), installation of walking and leisure furniture, but also active participation in meetings and festivities organized with the inhabitants of Jarville, to allow them to take ownership of the project, or even to help on the worksite... During all the working time, the group will be supervised by a professional and will have the opportunity to learn a lot of new skills. There is no need to have technical knowledge to come to this site: everyone is welcome !
🏠 Accommodation on site
You will be accommodated in a solid building, with access to sanitary facilities (showers and WCs) and a kitchen, as well as outdoor spaces. Remember to bring a mattress and a sleeping bag.
All aspects of collective life (shopping, preparing meals, cleaning) will be managed by the volunteers themselves, on the basis of an operation that they will have decided on together (e.g. use planning, formation of pairs, etc.). They will be helped in this task by a community life facilitator. The goal: for each volunteer to be an actor in their stay with respect for others and community life.
All together, you will think about how to work, eat, have fun, get around, visit the region in the most respectful way for the environment and for each other.
