İş Tanımı
De Amicitia has its own beekeeping project for educational and environmental purposes. We have 20-25 hives located in Altea that are used to carry out educational activities in centers and to pollinate the environment, as well as to produce a few kilos of honey that are used as gifts and to give visibility to the association. Volunteers will help us to maintain our educational beehive hives and panels and probably to fill up our glass jars with our fresh and delicius honey. We will also may ask them to support other assocations in the area by participating in local ecological activities like trail cleaning, community garden support, or beach litter removal, depending on current needs.
Volunteers should be ready for a hands-on, flexible experience and excited to contribute wherever help is most needed.

The volunteers will stay in a volunteer house, with four rooms with several bunkbeds and bathrooms. They will share rooms with four to six other volunteers. The house includes a nice kitchen in which the volunteers will cook for themselves in the guidance of the camp leaders.
You can either bring your own sheets or a sleeping bag. There are beds and pillows, sheets and pillow covers but it will be convenient that the volunteers bring their own.
Konum ve Serbest Zaman
Sanet is a small town in the southwest of Spain close to Dénia (communidad de Valencia). It lays in the beautiful countryside, surrounded by hills which are great for hiking - there are a lot of hiking trails to discover. There is a local swimming pool available and Dénia is only 5 minutes by cars.
The house is located right in the middle of town, so there are great opportunities to interact and socialize with the locals and to truly experience the Spanish countryside.
Furthermore, the volunteers can make excursions to Ondara and El Vergel, local towns close to Sanet. The surrounding villages like Benimelli and Ràfol d'Almunia can also be visited. There will also be day trips to the beach which is about 15 minutes by car from Sanet.

We are prepare to run the project even if number of volunteers is low as there are still some Long Term Volunteers in the house.
