Program Details
This program offers an immersion in a place dedicated to ecological gardens, biodiversity and the transmission of knowledge about nature. The project is part of an environmentally respectful approach, inspired by the principles of agroecology and permaculture.
Volunteers participate in the daily life of the place: garden maintenance, sowing, planting, harvesting and small tasks related to the development of natural spaces. Depending on the period and current projects, they may also contribute to educational activities or to welcoming visitors curious to discover the site and its practices.
Beyond garden work, the experience is also human and cultural. Volunteers discover a lifestyle closer to nature, learn new techniques of ecological gardening and share moments of exchange about daily life, meals and the site's projects.
This stay is ideal for people interested in ecology, natural farming, simple living and knowledge sharing. The goal is to create a rewarding experience for everyone, in a peaceful setting conducive to learning, cooperation and the discovery of nature.
