This workcamp is organized in cooperation with the Association for the Renovation of the Brewery in Janovice which in 2018 took over the more than 200-year-old and neglected brewery in the village of Janovice in northern Moravia. This workcamp aims to reconstruct, revitalize and clean up the old brewery to fulfil the long-term goal of the association – to turn the brewery into a local cultural centre for residents of Janovice. At this workcamp, you will actively contribute to the achievement of UN SDG11 Sustainable Cities and Communities.
İş Tanımı
The main task of this workcamp is the reconstruction of the historic wall that was once the edge of the horse stable on our property. The work of reconstructing a wall is not too exhausting and is suitable for all genders and ages; patience and determination are key qualities. In addition to this, smaller tasks such as removing the woody plants around the building, collecting rubbish, cleaning the cellars etc., are also on the agenda. Working boots are essential, and we recommend taking a headlamp or other flashlight.
