Dry stone day

Accompanied - Restoration sites

La Garde-Freinet
During one day, Alain Bouvard, a masonry trainer, will help you discover and learn the techniques for rehabilitating rural dry stone buildings.
We're delighted to offer you 3 days of training at the Jardins familiaux communaux in Le Cannet des Maures. You'll build a low wall, then work on a collective project to rebuild the gardens' old restanque and irrigation canal. Here are the dates:
- Saturday, March 22, 2025
- Saturday, April 26, 2025
- Saturday May 17, 2025
You'll learn about the general principles of building structures, then get to grips with the materials used (type of rock, cutting techniques) and learn how to lay, cover and finish them.
Several types of structure will be proposed: retaining walls, double-layered walls, corner chains, staircases, etc.
This fun and constructive course is designed for beginners as well as those wishing to perfect their skills.
