The project: The association etudes ET chantiers Bretagne Pays de Loire participates with two other associations in developing a project about the promotion of the ancient know-how in Brittany. This is a source of activities on the rural territories: restoration of the heritage, environment, agricultural diversification, tourism… In the Mene (Cotes d'Armor) a region rich of initiatives, the partners of the project wish to organize the second festival of the ancient know-how, based on the theme of Bread: from the production of cereals to sandwiches making, bread oven construction and small wicker baskets creation… We wait for you to muck in!!!
Works: The aim of the workcamp will be to prepare the welcome of this festival (cleaning of the site, land art, logistic for volunteers…), to promote the ancient know-how of each country of the participants on the very day and to clean the site after the event. The preparation will be an occasion to meet the local population, the artisans and the public (on Sunday 6th of July) and possibly share your own knowledge on the theme.
More info: The workcamp will take place in the Mene region, in the South East of Cotes d'Armor department (30 km from Saint Brieuc and from the sea). This region in the middle of Brittany is very rich from an environmental and patrimonial point of view, and young people are very active in local development, athletic activities, concerts, summer festivals…
Accommodation: in tents, at the Saint-Goueno campsite, 1 km from the festival.

Good to know before applying: All the useful supports are required (pictures, videos, recipes…) to let French people know about the know-how of bread making in your own country! It is recommended to have some knowledge of French to apply for this project in order to facilitate the exchange with the locals (but it is not a French-speaking camp).
