Campo di volontariato
The Stone Walls of Faï
Le Saix, FRANCIA
Attività principali
The work begins with preparing the site for intervention, carefully observing and reading the dry stone walls, styles, and typologies present at the Ferme du Faï. You will then work on dismantling the stones of the existing wall, which will allow you to understand the wall's structure according to dry stone masonry rules. A local craftswoman will guide you in choosing the stones and teach you how to position them correctly in the wall. Every day, two group members will take turns preparing the team's meals- the menu will be defined in advance. You will work on the site during the mornings from Monday to Friday. Generally, the work concerns dry stone masonry, tool and meal preparation, as well as the organization and setup of collective life.

Dove alloggerai
You will be accommodated in a campsite, in individual tents. A kitchen, dry toilets, and showers will be at your disposal. We welcome you to the Ferme du Faï, a host site located at an altitude of 1,000 meters. Here, we pay attention to our diet to reduce our environmental impact: we eat local food as much as possible and reduce our meat consumption to twice a week. Daily life is organized collectively: planning menus (vegetarian, vegan, etc.), grocery shopping, and activities.
Scopri Le Saix
Location : The Ferme du Faï is 2 km from the village of Le Saix and 13 km from the town of Veynes. There is no Wi-Fi and the connection is weak, but you will meet people from all over the world!
Leisure : The site is located below the summit of Aujour mountain, which might make you want to go hiking during your free time. Indeed, this place in the heart of nature is ideal for enjoying mountain walks. Discover this area with the group of international volunteers you will meet there- it will enrich your experience. Here, you will be the protagonists of your stay: you will play an important role in organizing your time with the support of the leadership team.
Organizzatore
A small valley in the heart of a sublime landscape, an atypical audio system that makes the mountain resonate with echoes, and people coming from all over the world to work side by side and experience international encounters. This is what characterizes the Ferme du Faï: a former mountain farm that lives today thanks to a team of employees and volunteers working on building renovations, as well as resident artists and musicians, passing hikers, and enthusiasts.
For several years, we have been working on the renovation of the building and the site in general. Every year, we organize the farm's association festival here, called "The Singing Mountain"- next August 17th, you will be the special guests of the festival! Are you ready to give us a hand in preparing the farm for this event, participating in the musical creation during the festival, and helping run the party? This opportunity will allow you to enjoy musical experiments with the unique audio system – called "Les Trompes du Faï" – which makes the valley resonate with its echo.
