Help on a farm and with community projects in Trémel, France

• 

  Description

  Hello everyone,
  
  We are located in Trémel Côtes d'Armor, in the middle of nowhere. Our nearest neighbors
  
  are a herd of cows !!! But we have a lot of visits, especially in the summer, between volunteers,
  
  students, scouts, friends, etc ...
  
  5 years ago, I decided to live the company as I conceive, instead of constantly criticizing. So
  
  I left my previous job and I bought the farm where I currently reside. Since I set up
  
  community projects:
  
  • 2015: Establishment of Housing Group, participation in the Swiss Association
  
  • 2016: Establishment of a food garden, a shared garden and a self-service garden
  
  Pumpipumpe; (Sharing Network among neighbors) Establishment of a die Edible
  
  Insects.
  
  Creating a new beverage concentrate Ginger
  
  My first beekeeping, with the acquisition of a hive (to start)
  
  To make sense of all these projects, traditional dances (folk) are present around us: whether at
  
  home, in dance or festival, is enormously dance (am also professor of traditional couple
  
  dances: Waltz, Mazurka, Scottish, Polka ...)
  
  But now, being only one with all these projects, I get out of breath just ... the idea is to share
  
  these ideas with motivated people ... why not you !!!
  
  We caution you here, comfort is simple, no decoration, no bows or lace ... This is a voluntary choice. The style is rather in the spirit of "Roadtrip" trips simplicity, minimalism, recycled objects ... it is a choice too. Just the basics: sleep, eat, wash and exchange if desired and if the requesting because up team adapts to the demand. Discretion is part of our ethics. The kitchen and dining room are common and it is possible to prepare meals or breakfast yourself. Everyone does as he wishes and pace. This place gives everyone the freedom to organize itself as it wishes.

  Why does workaway.info allow listings of hosts who charge money?

  In developing countries (Where most hosts are involved in charity work or community development) some of our hosts may ask for a small donation to help the host family or charity (often less then 5 dollars per day) Workaway will allow this listing when the donation goes directly to the family or charity and is just to cover the cost of the volunteer‘s stay.  (This will be clearly marked on the host listing).
  We will strictly not allow listings posted by agents, “middle men” or projects who we feel are looking to profit from a volunteers stay.
