We also need help making jams and marmelades, ferments and canning. Soap and cosmetic skilled workers welcome. We will be working on organic clothes tie and dye using natural dyes from garden plants and vegetables.
We are currently working on a playground for the children for which we need skilled help and would like to work on a garden art project, with the creation of maze, possibly the reproduction of the labyrinth of the Chartres cathedral, with dry stones or any other idea.
We would like to build a comfortable green house to start our heirlooms and will probably recycle plastic water bottles as the windows.
