Come to help at a family-run place in Brittany, France
The experience
I live in the countryside, on a large piece of land where I am developing a permaculture garden project, an autonomous orchard, and the creation of a garden dedicated to aromatic and medicinal plants on raised beds. The tasks are varied.
I am seeking help to continue these projects and other activities related to them or according to the volunteers' abilities.
We can communicate in French, English, or Spanish and I can help you learn French.
