Arbeit

You will work together with the “LEiV” (Verein Lebende Erde) which is a landscape protector group in the European NATURA2000-site “Teile des Südoststeirischen Hügellandes”. You will work on the meadows to collect the hay and in the woodlands to clean them from neophytes. The core idea is to assist the organisation with the traditional art of work that aims to preserve the area and its wildlife. You will also help at the European-Roller Festival ( the European roller is a protected bird from the region).

Please keep on mind that you are going to work with your hands under the sun and that some hard work is expected! Also, be aware that the work will take place outdoor all the time, so the different weather conditions should not be a big problem for you (you should like to be outdoor most of the time).
