Throughout the year we work with volunteers at Le Grippault. We have space for two volunteers at a time. You’ll help with the creation and maintenance of the vegetable and flower gardens, planting young trees, or caring for our woodland. Sometimes there are also small painting jobs inside the house. Together we make a programme according to the season and your experience.

You stay with us for at least one week and work six hours a day: three in the morning and three in the afternoon, so you need to be physically fit. We offer a private room with an adjoining bathroom. You cook for yourself; when possible we have lunch together. In the evenings you eat alone or with the other volunteer, and once a week with our family. All food and drink costs are covered, but you pay for your own travel. Interested? Contact us for an introductory chat.
