    Description

    This summer we organize 2 eco-building camps: from the 20th to the 24th of July and from the 19th to 29th of August.

    We are a couple who create an eco-project in the countryside, in south west of France. We also created an association to promote permaculture, ecoconstruction and local cultural project in our area.
    We are a multicultural group of friends involved in this association, who traveled a lot and lived abroad.
    Now that we are creating our own project we are interested in cultural exchange and sharing experiences about permaculture and eco-construction.
    We are finishing building our eco-place and we start a new project, a “tiers-lieu”: bigger and for the territory and we are looking for volunteers to be part of our adventure!
