Get involved in preserving the rural environmental heritage of France! Nestled in the heart of the Gers, you'll discover the village of Preignan—a small, vibrant community, offering a haven of tranquility and natural beauty away from the hustle of big cities.

You'll have the opportunity to participate in an eco-volunteering mission, working in exceptional environments cherished by the locals of Preignan and the hamlet of Rambert. This volunteer project is dedicated to safeguarding the environment, protecting endangered species, and preserving their natural habitats. Volunteers play a crucial role in taking committed actions for the planet and the conservation of biodiversity.

Your responsibilities will include beach cleaning, aimed at collecting plastic and wood debris while ensuring the preservation of flora and fauna. Additionally, you'll have the chance to contribute by painting a wooden chalet and learning how to construct insect houses.

Preignan is situated in the South of France, within the department of Gers, at the heart of Occitanie. Positioned centrally in a rural area near Auch, this small village boasts a rich historical background.
Dating back to the Gallo-Roman era, Preignan showcases remnants of its past, including a Gallo-Roman villa perched atop the ridges. At the heart of the village stands a Romanesque church, likely erected on an ancient Merovingian burial ground.

The Rambert mill, also known as the Hydroberge, stands as a historic and emblematic monument in Preignan. Much of your volunteering will revolve around this location. The Hydroberge serves as a welcoming space, housing a community café and hosting various cultural events throughout the year, such as concerts, conferences, and practical workshops.
The area is celebrated for its rich heritage and gastronomy. During the summer months, the place comes alive with numerous festivals, concerts and events.

The area offers a prime opportunity to delve into France's historic past, maintaining a robust regional identity. Explorations can lead you along the paths of Compostela and to various archaeological sites, such as the Gallo-Roman villa of Seviac, which has hosted international construction projects.
