Project : Situted in the provençale Baronnies, the mountain of Saint Genis (part of the Garde Colombe village) is a geological formation that is emblematic of the region. The mountain is cut through with magnificent canyons that are crisscrossed by former paths that bear witness to significant activity on this massif that today is dedicated to logging. The site, situtated within unspoilt nature, is an amazing place to admire the surrounding landscape and exceptional vegetation.
Several supporting walls made from dry-stone were built to open up the paths that wind along the slopes of this site. The proposed workcamp will be focused on the restoration of these supporting walls and the creation of steps, most notably on the trail leading to the former area of the castle. The regional natural park of provençale Baronnies, in parternship with the assocation Les Villages des Jeunes and the Pôle Randonnée de la Communauté de Communes du Sisteronais Buëch, launched an operation to raise awareness about and highlight the technique of dry stone mansonry. Elected officials and residents will be engaged in this operation by helping restoration efforts and promoting the discovery of dry stone built heritage (conferences, visists). The international workcamp is in line with these efforts, and will revolve around the continution of work that has already been done in 2019.
Work : Last year, this site welcomed multiple workcamps : a 2 week long international workcamp and a another one open to residents. These workcamps were tasked with 3 different jobs : the removal of the former village’s main road, the creation of a stone wall at the entrance of the site, and the removal of the dry-stone floor located in the church’s square. This first year allowed the issues related to dry-stone as well as the site to be highlighted in front of elected officials, residents, and tourists. This year, you will to continue the work undertaken last year and will be supervised by a professional in dry-stone masonry. A day's work is expected to last 6 hours, and the organisation of the days will be discussed and decided on by the group. The pedagogical objective of this workcamp is to discover a traditional construction technique that only required materials are stones cleared from fields intended for agriculture, or those that are recovered from former buildings. Theoretical, historical, and practical approaches will be shared.
Leisure activities : The land of sunshine and amazing flavors, the provençale Baronnies massif is good living personified where you can enjoy outdoor activities in the heart of nature while also just lounging around ! Rich in natural heritage with agriculture that has adapted to the mediterranean climate within the mountains, the provençale Baronnies are known for their aromatic and medicinal plants : wild thyme, rosemary, lavender.

PARTNER : Welcome to the land of pink stone! Born of the fusion of two villages, Saint-Jean Saint-Maurice sur Loire is organized around two centers of life: the medieval village of Saint-Maurice, nestled on a hill overlooking the Loire and the village of Saint-Jean occupying a less steep territory. Attached to the richness of their heritage and welcoming a large number of tourists during the summer period, the town wanted to host a group of young internationals volunteers with the mission of redeveloping the footpath to former « Four Banal » (communal oven to bake bread).
WORK: In medieval times, ovens were installed in the village and made available to the inhabitants by the lords, today only the name of this path remains to testify. Located at the bottom of the town, the path to this public berad oven provides access to the old covered walkway. A narrow corridor built at the top or along the fortifications, the walkways allowed the sentries to guard the city. Located on the circumference of the old Serpentin (stream) and Loire (river). Designed for pedestrians, this former foot path has steps made of logs and earth. Today collapsed, your mission will be to rehabilitate these steps. In a second step, you will clean the walls along the path currently covered with invasive vegetation. You will be supervised by volunteers and the technical service of the town. They will be happy to share with you their expertise and the history of this particular place. You will be accommodated in the center of Saint-Jean, located a 10-minute walk from the site, where you will reach on foot. You will work 4 to 5 hours a day.
Located to the north-west of the Loire department and part of the Massif Central, the village of Saint Jean Saint-Maurice sur Loire has 1,200 inhabitants and offers an exceptional living environment. The merging of two old villages offers the current town an important richness of heritage: the cure, the sundial tower, the fleur-de-lis house, the Ris Serpentin gate, the Fortress of Saint-Maurice, the church of Saint Maurice, the church of Saint Jean, the Maison du Tonnelier or the Manoir de la Mure-Chantois. You will get to know these many monuments as a local association will provide a guided tour. You can also stroll through the narrow streets of Saint-Maurice and meet many art craftsmen (jewelry, sculpture). A map of the many hiking trails will also be available to you.

SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS: The work you will do on the path to the common bread oven will allow you to acquire knowledge in landscaping: analyze the quality of the landings and standardize them, ensure a stable base using a wooden log, standardize the height of the steps, anticipate the deterioration linked to water flows to ensure lasting stability for the “donkey step” staircase, making an aesthetic path. You will learn to use the tools necessary for measuring, cutting and setting up new steps. In the second step, you will learn how to use pruning tools to remove invasive vegetation from the walls. Humanly, you will develop your ability to work in a team: listening to instructions and others, adaptability to the environment, reactivity, thoroughness, mutual aid. These capacities will be reinforced in your living space.

Project and work:
Does French heritage make you think of castles? Commit yourself and come live two weeks of volunteering in a landscaped garden of 44ha. Bonus: a stunning view on an 18th century floating on water castle!
You will renovate the greenhouses of the castle of Ricquebourg. If the castle was built in the 18th century, the greenhouses are witness of the American occupation of the next century. The intervention will consist of clearing, brushing and cleaning the inside and outside of the greenhouses, reinforcing the masonry and closing the canopy.
Partner:
Built in 1712, the castle of Ricquebourg, is located in the centre of a 44-hectare park, in the middle of a pond. Over the years it has changed owners many times. Thus, at the end of the 19th century, rich Americans occupied the place. The family expanded and laid out the park as a landscaped English garden with greenhouses. In the 20th century, the castle also lived to the rhythm of the wars. The building was partially destroyed during World War I and radically changed shape when it was rebuilt in 1925. The castle then adopted a smaller form, a trianon placed on a water mirror.
Awareness of the condition of the property has been growing in recent years. The willingness of the owners to welcome the public more frequently is being felt. Thus, the association "Societe des Amis du Domaine de Ricquebourg" was created in order to carry out the necessary work to safeguard the chateau and open up the park. In this context, the greenhouses of the English garden must be able to offer a hosting and resting place for visitors (benches and tables, potential exhibition area...).
This first project on the domain will thus bring dynamism to the site. The landscaped garden will once again live up to the international rhythm. It will also be an opportunity to meet and exchange with the owners, but also with the inhabitants of the village.
Location and leisure:
Ricquebourg is a peaceful village of about 280 inhabitants located in the Hauts-de-France, in the department of Oise, in the heart of the former Picardie region. The commune is 1h30 from Paris, 1h from Amiens and 30min from Compiegne. Rich in Gothic cathedrals, the region also has a varied heritage and a strong history to be found in the tourist points: Chateau de Chantilly (1h), Palais de Compiegne (30min), the Chateau de Pierrefonds (40min), the Armistice Quarry (30min), the cathedral district of Noyon, a unique medieval heritage (30mins), etc.
Accommodation and food:
You will sleep under tents, in the garden of the castle. You will use the castle kitchen and bathroom, and outside toilets will be placed. You will share the different group life tasks and prepare meals together.
