Wood Stock 1

Join Wood Stock ‘26, a creative and hands-on workcamp dedicated to woodcraft and reuse, set in the unique surroundings of our castle. This project invites you to work with your hands, share skills and give new life to wood through renovation and upcycling. From restoring traditional wooden window shutters with ecological DIY paint, to creating furniture from reclaimed pallets, you’ll help preserve the character of the place while embracing sustainable practices. A project rooted in craftsmanship, creativity and collective energy!

Participants will mainly work with wood, focusing on renovating the castle’s wooden window shutters. This will involve repairing damaged elements, fixing hinges, sanding, treating surfaces and, and crafting new shutters when needed. They will also prepare their own paint made with flour and natural pigments. In parallel, the group will design and build simple, functional furniture from recycled pallets. Tasks will include dismantling and preparing wood, taking measurements, cutting, assembling and finishing. This project combines manual skills, teamwork and creativity, offering a practical introduction to traditional and sustainable woodworking techniques.
