Camp name: Moravian countryside Spring

Camp type: ENVIRONMENT/RENOVATION

Age: 18+

Project: This spring workcamp will take place in the small Moravian village of Tvarozna Lhota, situated in the White Carpathian Mountains, already for 12^th time. The region is famous for its folk traditions and its beautiful countryside. In the outskirts of the village, the local NGO “INEX-SDA Bile Karpaty” runs a small centre for rural development and sustainability called Cottage Travicna. The centre also hosts an outdoor museum with traditional cottages, some farm animals, a herbal garden and traditional fruit trees, showing how rural life in the mountains used to look like there in the past. The aim of the workcamp is to maintain the area of Travicna after winter and collect herbs for herbal teas.

Work: The work will be manual. Firstly, volunteers will work in the outdoor museum, mainly repairing fences, making hay, cleaning, planting and fencing trees, creating play structures for children and weeding the herb garden. Secondly, volunteers will collect herbs from the surrounding meadows, which will then be used for the production of local herbal teas.

Study part: Spring in Moravia is full of folkloric events such as erection of the maypole (central point of the village made of tall decorated wood). There will be many opportunities to learn about local products, local farming, the history, traditions and potential of the region.

Leisure time: Trips to the countryside and to folklore events, visits to different sights in the surrounding towns and villages can be organized.

Accommodation/Food: In a building in the very centre of the village. Volunteers will need to bring their own sleeping bags and sleeping mats. Two small bathrooms are available. Please be prepared for basic living conditions as the house is very small. Volunteers will prepare their meals together – a small kitchen is available in the living area. Bring your favourite recipes.

Location: a small village of Tvarozna Lhota (900 inhabitants) in the region of Southern Moravia (bus stop in the village, next train stop Straznice and Veseli nad Moravou). Latest train from Prague at 15:43.
