General volunteering

If you have some time available and would like to invest it in Les Courmettes, we most certainly have things you can do!

Managing the site is a constant challenge and we rely on help from many people.

You can help the work of Les Courmettes by offering to volunteer with us – a great opportunity to be useful and to meet dedicated people. We can propose you a structure and a schedule that matches your wishes and skillset. We are used to accommodating volunteers of all ages and backgrounds and look forward to meeting you!

In particular, you can help in the following areas:

  • Building maintenance and renovation
  • Environmental conservation
  • Gardening
  • Footpath maintenance and way marking
  • Development of educational materials
  • Visitor area
  • Communications
  • And anywhere else where your skills can serve the life of Courmettes!

Depending on the situation, we may be able to offer you board and lodging at very reasonable rates.

We welcome enquiries not only from individuals but also from groups (e.g. churches) who wish to come for a team volunteering experience.

Being able to speak French is not necessary but it does come in handy 🙂

If you would like to know more and explore the possibility of spending time at Les Courmettes and if you would like to apply to stay with us, please fill out our volunteer application form.
