Arbeit

The path of the Monks meanders along the hillside below the chapel; it is supported by dry stone retaining walls and has a stone-covered walkway, known as a calade in south-eastern France. One of the retaining walls of the path, located under the chapel, is partly deteriorated due to lack of maintenance. You will participate in the restoration of this wall which is essential to put the chapel back in its place in the landscape by redrawing the flatness of the wall leading to it. The following work will be undertaken: dismantling and sorting of the stones, earthworks and reconstruction of the wall according to the very precise technique of dry stone construction (theoretical and practical input). You can also discover the technique of restoration of the dry stone path: punctual recovery of the damaged parts of the path, realization of stone steps. The workcamp will be supervised by a professional in dry stone construction techniques. A daily work of 6 hours is planned, the organization of the days will be discussed and decided by the group of participants. The pedagogical objective is to discover a traditional construction technique which does not require any material, except stones from the stoning of fields intended for agriculture or recovered from old buildings. Theoretical, historical and practical contributions will be disseminated. It should be noted that this workcamp is part of a more global action to enhance the site of the chapel. The population of the village is invited to take part in the work of clearing the brush and creating a calade on the chapel square.

Unterkunft und Verpflegung

You will be accommodated in tents at the Barillons campsite located in Serres. An animation team will be present to help you in the organization of the collective life: planning of household chores, elaboration of menus and preparation of meals in turn, organization of leisure activities and outings.

Lage und Freizeit

Land of light, scents and flavours, the Baronnies Provençal is a land where the sweetness of life is combined with the practice of outdoor sports like idleness! Rich in natural and agricultural heritages adapted to the Mediterranean climate under alpine influence, the Provencal Baronnies are marked by fragrant, aromatic and medicinal plants: wild thyme, rosemary, lavender. Near Serres, you can discover many major sites in the south of the Hautes-Alpes: Aujour mountain and Clausonne abbey, Saint-Genis mountain, the Méouge gorges, Orpierre site, the Riou lake where you can practice many sports activities (climbing, mountain biking, hiking, swimming in lakes and rivers).

Wer organisiert das Projekt?

Come and discover one of the small perched towns in the South of France, Serres in the Alpes, which offers a magnificent panorama of the medium mountain range of the Baronnies Provençales! The town, leaning against the Pignolette rock, is made up of small shady medieval streets and covered and sloping passages in which it is good to stroll. At the top of this village and at the bend in the monks' path, is the chapel of Notre Dame de Bon Secours, which overlooks the Buëch valley. This building was erected in 1730 and blessed in 1732. Partly dug into the rock, it marries the hillside, on the presumed site of the former chapel of the castle of Serres. The Baronnies Provençales Regional Nature Park, in partnership with the association Les Villages des Jeunes and a hiking organization, launched an operation to raise awareness and promote the dry-stone building technique in 2018. Elected officials and inhabitants will be mobilized for this operation through restoration actions and discoveries of the dry-stone built heritage (conference, visit).

*** VERSION EN FRANCAIS DISPONIBLE EN FIN DE DESCRIPTION *** *** French version at the end of the description *** Come and discover the Hautes Alpes by participating in the creation of a high altitude permaculture garden at the Serre-Chevalier Hostel! Located in the heart of the small village of Bez, the Hostel of Serre-Chevalier advocates a sustainable and solidarity-based tourism in a durable and eco-responsible development approach.

It will eventually host workshops for migrants to enable them to acquire new skills in permaculture, to obtain local production for the hostel and for people involved in the management of the garden, to create activities around ecological cooking... This summer, you will lay the foundations of the garden by setting up a system to collect rain and runoff water, building wooden structures for future planting patch, delimiting plots and planting farmers’ seeds in accordance with the principles of permaculture. The project will be supervised by someone experienced in the field and having already knowledge of the possibilities of this type of garden in a mountain environment.

People passing by disconnect one moment from society and better reconnect with nature and others. The association La Feina is managed by a group of people who have chosen to experience, daily, an eco-friendly way of living. The association and its eco-hamlet come to life by organising educational workshops: crafts, agriculture, environmental education. The association also welcomes groups and events on the land. Their activities are integrated respecting the local dynamics. The eco-hamlet is located in a breathtaking rural mountainous area. The activities proposed are organised taking into consideration the surrounding environment and available resources. We have been working with La Feina for the past 2 years. Volunteers helped organise the official opening party of the eco-hamlet and started renovating the hamlet's barn: the "GRAOUNGE". More info: www.lafeina.lautre.net FRENCH : L'association La Feina a pour objet de pérenniser un lieu de vie et d'accueil à destination principale de jeunes en difficulté sociale. C'est un lieu qui permet aux personnes qui y passent de se reconnecter avec la nature en se débarrassant du superflu, de se déconnecter un temps de la société pour mieux se reconnecter à la nature et à l'autre. Elle est gérée par un collectif de personnes qui ont choisi et expérimentent au quotidien un mode de vie le plus respectueux de l'environnement et de l'autre possible. Elle met en place des outils pédagogiques (artisanat, agriculture, éducation à l'environnement, accueil de groupes pour stages ou évènements …) pour faire vivre le hameau et l'intégrer dans une dynamique locale et respectueuse. Ce lieu étant situé en milieu rural de montagne, l'association œuvre pour mettre en place des activités en lien avec l'environnement proche et avec les ressources disponibles. Nous collaborons avec l'association depuis 2 ans déjà. Les bénévoles et volontaires ont participé à l'organisation d'une fête d'inauguration et la restauration de la "Graounge", grange typique du hameau. Plus d'infos : www.lafeina.lautre.net

EN : The hamlet is located in a beautiful, rather isolated, rural valley (15 minutes by car from the nearest village, 30 minutes by car from the nearest town). The association has chosen not to install Wi-Fi. The mobile network is weak. But do not worry, enjoy reconnecting with yourself, the people around you and the environment! Volunteers can access a wired internet connection and network sharing. Unfortunately, the site is not accessible for wheelchairs. As you understood, sustainable development is in the heart of the project. For reasons of consistency, we encourage you to choose environmental-friendly ways to travel and avoid planes if possible. FR : Le hameau est situé en zone rurale dans une magnifique vallée et assez isolé (15 minutes en voiture du village le plus proche, 30 minutes en voiture de la ville la plus proche), L'association ne dispose pas de Wifi par choix, et le réseau téléphonique y est faible.

*** VERSION EN FRANCAIS DISPONIBLE EN FIN DE DESCRIPTION *** *** French version at the end of the description *** Are you passionate about heritage and old stones, but still want to make yourself useful? Come and contribute to the enhancement of the medieval castle of Clermont L'Hérault! Built in the 12th Century, the Château des Guilhem has suffered considerable deterioration over the years, which has led the commune to close access to the public. Since the beginning of this year, the municipality has decided to undertake the work necessary to reopen it at the beginning of this summer. Your work will therefore consist of enhancing the site, carrying out minor landscaping work, facilitating access to the castle with brush clearing and small improvements to the existing paths. This work is therefore essential to enable visitors, walkers and the curious from all walks of life to come and discover this medieval gem! Accompanied by the four goats already present on the site, you will also be able to prevent and fight against the potential risk of fire.

Unterkunft und Verpflegung

At the campsite 4**** of the Salagou lake. Sleeping in individual tents (bring your own floor mat and duvet). The campsite has all the comforts for daily and collective life. You will share the various collective tasks and prepare meals together. A budget will be allocated to the animators and you will participate in the shopping and the preparation of meals, giving priority to healthy and local products.

Lage und Freizeit

Clermont L'Hérault is a charming little town located north of Montpellier in the South of France. Benefiting from a Mediterranean climate and a remarkable natural environment (Lac du Salagou, rivers of the Gorges de l'Hérault nearby), it also has a rich cultural heritage with its castle and cathedral. In the heart of a preserved setting, you can enjoy the pleasure of outdoor activities and make cultural and festive discoveries.

Wer organisiert das Projekt?

Since 2015, we have a very strong partnership with the city of Clermont l'Hérault and the local associations which act in favour of the discovery of the local heritage. The offices of our delegation are located in the town. We thus carry out several voluntary projects for the young people of the area. We work together with volunteers from local heritage preservation associations. This project concerning the enhancement of the castle is very important for the commune. It is therefore planned to create a natural theatre within the castle, to install a restaurant and to organise cultural and festive events. Your participation is therefore essential for the implementation of this communal project.

: In one day, the large-scale “Mediterranean episode” on the 2nd and 3rd of October 2020, the raging rivers of Alpes-Maritimes (storm Alex) devastated the roads along the Roya valley, destroyed part of the access path to the “Neige et Merveilles” site, damaged two reception buildings and scarred the landscape. You will participate in a solidarity work project that will bring together the association’s members, young European volunteers, and voluntary work project associations in the Provence-Alpes-Côte-d’Azur region; we want to welcome everyone who sent us their kind and supportive messages and who want to participate in rebuilding the site.
