Beschreibung:
PROJECT: Stanmer Organics is a co-operative of individuals and groups based at an 8 hectare site at Stanmer Park. They are committed to using the land for organic food production which is sold locally with the aim of reducing road travel and air pollution and being sustainable. They are also committed to environmental art, finding new crops and food production techniques which are less damaging to the environment and educating local people and schools about sustainability through school visits and open days. There will be an open day at the end of the project and VAP and Concordia volunteers are invited to come to Stanmer Organics and help prepare the site for the open day. WORK: The work is likely to involve preparing the allotments, weeding and planting herbs and vegetables, working in the orchard, possible hay making and tidying the art and relaxation areas ready for the public. ACCOMMODATION: The volunteers will be camping in tents a short walk from the project site. Warm sleeping bag and roll mat are essential! LOCATION: Stanmer Park is located on the edge of the South Downs in East Sussex. The site is in a remote area around ½ hour walk from the nearest shop or train station. SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS: Volunteers will be living outside for the duration of the project please be prepared to camp and work in both good and bad weather. The site is fairly remote so please bring ideas for games and activities to do in the evenings.
