Programmdetails

We are looking for people who can help and share, learn from each other and motivate each other, enjoy meeting and living together. We understand the value of a volunteer. You will also meet the team of the restaurant and the hotel : cleaning persons, waitresses and chefs.
We love the idea of exchanging knowledge, so if you know more about permaculture or bioconstruction, don't hesitate to help us.
You will be mainly helping with :
* daily tasks such as : feeding the chickens and cleaning the henhouse, preparing the firewood and organizing it, picking the horses’ manure and taking care of the compost, cleaning the common space (kitchen and library) and throwing away the garbage.
* weekly tasks such as : controlling the water pressure (solar panel, jacuzzi…).
* specific projects : building a mosaic for a patio, painting rooms’ walls, fixing stuff, planting aloe vera or other plants, taking care of the garden…

From beginning of 2026 till mid-june (?) , we want to focus on:
* improving infrastructures and building : for instance the mosaic’s patio.
* preparing the field for spring and summer planting.

What we would like to have as help :
* we aim to collaborate 4 hours per day, 5 days per week. Normally you have Thursday and Sunday off, but we can change the days.
* the timetable is up to you but better to start in the morning to have your free afternoon
