Hi everyone,
We are looking for volunteers, curious, motivated and concerned about a better future for next generation, in order to help us.
The project was borned 3 years ago, which is a non-profit project. We experiment permaculture and agro-ecology.

We are 7 people working on the field. Our objective is to reach food abondancy, one of the permaculture's principle, by creating an etable forest.
The project has a wider vision about world and society, which we would be glad to share with you once you get here.

** ACCOMODATION ** We can host 4 persons in the yurts. Also, there is a caravan with two double-bed. Or you can sleep in tents during summer (bring your sleeping bag, just in case)
The solar panel allows to charge little equipment, like phones, and light.
We provide Vegan food during the stay.
No meat and no animals exploitation, no dogs.
-> About the field, there is a 2 hectares grassland surrounded by forest. Almost 200 trees with a wide range of species (asimina triloba ; nuts ; apple ; peaches...). Trees are between 3 and 4 years old, so not many fruit to grab yet.
Near by are three villages 15 minutes walking. A river is less than 15 minutes away, really pleasant during summer.
The closest town is about 1 hour by foot, or 15 minutes in car.
-> About Organization : We've got tap water for washing dishes, but no shower. Except the solar shower and the garden bose, just boil water and go on.
During summer, you can still take a bath in the river.
No Illicit Drugs
No need of alcohol to have fun here
We would like volunteers to work at least 3 hours a day
We entrust the human security to the cats cartel.
