Monthly Friends Working Weekends
Embercombe Friends Working Weekends happen monthly and we gratefully welcome anyone who would like to come along and volunteer their enthusiasm, expertise, or simply just a willing pair of hands, to help in both seasonal and on-going work at Embercombe. Over a weekend of working on the land, cooking, eating and sharing, we create a community of people who nourish the place and each other.
What you will be part of:
- Purposeful activity that has personal meaning and benefits both you, our community and the mission of our charity
- A community of like-minded people who are affirming their connection to the land and what it holds for us
- Sharing skills and knowledge
- The tasks that supports day to day living
- Preparing food: from harvesting, chopping, cooking, eating, enjoying, and the washing up!
- An opportunity for families to work together, benefiting from all that Embercombe has to offer
- Sharing of stories around our camp fires
- Creativity and artistic beauty (Click through for a poem performed at one of our Friends weekends).
