Universitas in Farmhouse

Volunteers are invited to continue the project GARDEN OF ENVIRONMENT – FIELDS for PLAYING AND LEARNING on our gardening land. It will offer different stations where visitors can learn about and experience nature and sustainability … very creative, surprising and funny! Volunteers will support the host in their garden, construction, and landscape design work. There will be physical work, using tools and working with materials like wood, rocks, and soil. You will work outdoors most of the time. Last year, a pond was created with the help of the volunteers! Volunteers who like to exercise can chop firewood. Every year, volunteers are invited to get to know the local permaculture garden and do some gardening there. While looking after the plants, there is the possibility to harvest fruits. Therefore, we are looking for 12 motivated young people who are interested in handicrafts, advanced training, and gardening/landscaping. Study part: Volunteers will get some insight into the principles of permaculture for example: how to create a productive garden which grows plants and feeds animals in a way that only a minimum input of energy and resources is required to achieve maximum sustainability for the environment. Interesting ecological and cultural projects/information from your country are very welcome.
