Growing Together
Start date: Aug 5, 2016, End date: Oct 4, 2017 PROJECT  FINISHED 

Cloughjordan Community Farm (CCF) will host four EVS volunteers sent by their respective organizations, for 12 months. All volunteers will be based here in Cloughjordan with CCF. The volunteers will work on promoting CCF as a model for other community food projects and to promote the ideas of self-sufficiency, sustainable living and local food produce.This EVS project will contribute to CCF's mission of promoting healthy eating, sustainable food production, sustainable development, raising environmental awareness and intercultural understanding through volunteering in Ireland and by hosting four volunteers from different cultures, from EU partner countries. We expect the volunteers to grow personally and professionally, to increase their intercultural understanding and to learn about sustainable farming, healthy eating and environmental awareness. The EVS project will provide the volunteers with the opportunity to enhance their employability through increasing their skills and knowledge in horticulture, working with people of all ages, in a working team and educational environment, intercultural understanding and sustainable development. All the partner organizations will increase their intercultural understanding, learning more about each other's countries and cultures. We expect the partner organizations to develop their relationships and that we will work together on EVS projects in the future. We expect the local communities and general public to learn about the Erasmus+ programme through this EVS and that it will promote their participation in it.
