Détails du programme

This is simple and building phase, so I'm looking for people who are resilient, proactive, and have good communication skills. The site is still new and growing, so there isn't a lot of comfort right now—it's a simple and genuine experience, perfect for those who love nature and don't mind getting adapted.

Accommodation is in a large, comfy tent, about 15m², equipped with a mattress and bedding. No need to bring your own tent or mattress! The space fits up to 4 people, creating a light and collaborative vibe.

There's no luxury here, but there's adventure, learning, and great company. I'm hoping to find people open to experiencing the process from the ground up, with patience, transparency, and a willingness to learn.

In return, I offer full support, a listening ear, and flexibility. I'm always around to help, chat, and adjust schedules when needed. I really value the community, human connection, and friendship—the volunteer is more than just help; you're a part of the site's story.

During free time, you can hit the waterfall trail, take a dip in the river, have board game nights, watch movies, and enjoy good conversation. Here, the work is about exchanging learning and company—and the goal is to build something beautiful together, with ease and purpose.


Activités et horaires

At this stage, the project’s main focus is the natural building of wattle and daub chalets, which will become the future accommodations on the farm. Here, volunteers take part in every step of the process — from preparing the clay and assembling the wooden structures to natural plastering, finishing touches, and creative details.

Besides bioconstruction, the daily routine includes activities related to permaculture and sustainability, such as:
* Setting up and managing an organic garden;
* Producing compost and natural fertilizers;
* Implementing ecological sanitation systems (green septic tank, water collection, etc.);
* Helping with simple electrical and plumbing installations;
* Organizing and maintaining the space, always focusing on reuse and learning.

It’s a hands-on and complete experience for those who want to witness the birth of a sustainable farm, learn the core techniques of permaculture, and live a simple, collaborative, and nature-connected lifestyle.
