Help the community of Lauterbach take care of its beautiful forest and of its wildlife-rich open land! Lauterbach has many nature conservation areas to offer and your valuable help is needed for various conservation tasks.
During this workcamp you will be working in the forest and open land and you will help the municipality to maintain the diverse landscape. Your tasks:
• Maintaining a wet meadow as a habitat for rare species of flora and fauna. This involves removing mown material from the meadow by hand;
• removal of woody plants from the forest moor biotopes with tree-trimmers and saws;
• maintenance of beautiful hiking trails, so that everyone can enjoy the great landscape as well;
• removal of so-called "neophytes" (invasive non-native vegetation) from protected areas, as they threaten native biodiversity;
• you may also repair fences and maintain ecologically valuable grassland areas, supporting our local graziers.
Be prepared for hard physical work! Due to working in swampy (boggy) and steep areas, rubber boots and/or sturdy shoes are required for effective work! The work will be led by a professional instructor, so no previous experience is needed. You will work around 30 hours per week, somewhere between 8am to 3pm from Monday to Friday with a lunchbreak.
You will stay in a nice community house in the middle of the forest, called "Mosenmättle Guest House". There, you will find sanitary facilities, showers, a common room with sofas and tables and a well-equipped kitchen for you to use. You will sleep in 4 multi-bed rooms (with bunkbeds). As the house is located in a very rural area, the internet access and mobile phone coverage will most probably be limited. Just be prepared to spend two wonderful, adventurous weeks away from your busy and usual everyday life. Your group of volunteers will be responsible for grocery shopping and cooking together. The food will be bought with the camp budget and everybody will take turns for cooking and cleaning. In order to reduce our carbon footprint on the planet, we encourage volunteers to reduce meat and try more sustainable dishes.
Lauterbach is situated in the heart of the Black Forest nature park, close to the towns of Schramberg and Rottweil. You will have many possibilities to hike and experience nature first hand. Just step out the door and find yourself surrounded by beautiful landscapes! In your free time, you will have the possibility to go to the swimming or to visit cities like Rottweil or Freiburg.
It is the 14th time that the community of Lauterbach and a local Landscape Development Association invite an internaitonal workcamp! Above all, the local hosts are very happy to be supported by a workcamp at different environmental and construction tasks in a nature protected area! Not only is your help valuable to them but they are also very happy to share their knowledge about forest preservation to foreign volunteers. By volunteering in this project, you are actively protecting nature and biodiversity (UN SDG 15).
COVID-regulations: On arrival you have to present an actual negative Antigen- oder PCR-Test.
