The community of Horb is counting on your help to extend and improve some of its public infrastructure like benches, urban gardening, and probably also the skate park of the town.
Your concrete tasks will be:
• Building raised beds for schools and kindergartens: Together with municipal employees, you will help create 10 raised beds for various social institutions in the city, which will then be made available for children, young people, and adults to plant herbs and vegetables.
• Restoring benches in the city and installing new ones. Many benches in Horb urgently require restoration to be used by citizens again. These, along with the raised beds, will beautify the outdoor area and enhance its utility for residents. Additionally, 6 new wooden benches for pedestrians will be built along the Neckar river.
• Craftsmanship for maintaining play equipment: This involves sanding and painting some play equipment in children's playgrounds and renewing or repairing wooden elements in the skatepark next to the youth center and on a "Trimm Dich Pfad" in a district.
• Revamping community gardens to make them more functional and attractive. The garden will be open to all interested citizens who do not have a garden at home.
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 4pm from Monday to Friday with a lunchbreak. You will also be divided in smaller groups throughout the days to do most of the work.

You will be staying at Horb’s youth house, known as Marmorwerk ("marble factory" in German). The Marmorwerk features a fully equipped kitchen, communal rooms where you will sleep on camp beds (please bring your own sleeping bag!), toilets, and a spacious outdoor area. WiFi is also available at the accommodation. For shower facilities, you will need to walk approximately 4-5 minutes to the town’s indoor swimming pool.
The central location of Marmorwerk means it's only a 5-7 minute walk to the supermarket and train station.
Food will be purchased using the camp budget, and everyone will take turns cooking and cleaning. To reduce our carbon footprint, we encourage volunteers to consume less meat and try more sustainable dishes.

Horb am Neckar is a beautiful town with 25.300 inhabitants, located on the banks on the Neckar river and surrounded by green hills. Horb is about 900 years old! You will feel its long history when exploring the town center. Between the church overlooking the town, the half-timbered houses, the old towers and gates and the narrow paved alleys, you will find many interesting and pretty sights there.
At the weekend you will be able to visit further places in the region. Horb is located on the slopes of the Black Forest, which means that you can easily go for hikes there. With regional trains, you can reach cities like Tübingen (35min) or Stuttgart (50min) or even reach Lake Constance (2h to 2h30), the biggest lake in Germany. Plus, the locals have plenty of ideas and recommendations and they would be happy to spend time with you also during your free time, to make you discover their lovely region.
