Le Temps des Savoir-Faire organizes Team Building workshops aiming for combining the discovery of local nature with the practice of ancestral and ecological know-hows. Each workshop begins with a stroll to discover the natural ressources followed by a practical session !
Why think that knowledge of wild plants and natural resources is an inaccessible skill, reserved only for botanists or experts? Farmers all over the world - and so-called “primitive” peoples - once knew the treasures of their natural surroundings like the back of their hand. The explanation is simple: they used them daily for a wide range of purposes such as cooking, textiles, crafts, medicine, and even fire-making. At Le Temps des Savoir-Faire, the goal is precisely to pass on this knowledge of plants, fungi, and minerals through their practical uses, so they can be more easily remembered, their incredible powers discovered, and their value preserved. For diverse audiences, workshops are organized around the discovery of edible wild plants, basket weaving, wood carving, clay and its applications, rope-making, pigment and paint preparation, and more. Each workshop begins with a walk in nature to learn how to identify the resource(s) of interest, followed by a hands-on session putting this knowledge into practice. Take the time to (re)discover nature’s treasures. Take the time to know-how (savoir-faire in French).
  • Ils s'engagent
    Le Temps des Savoir-Faire chooses local and sustainable sourcing. All materials used are natural and harvested within a limited radius of a few kilometres. Everything is made by hand, using physical energy, regardless of the craft being practised, whether it be ceramics, basketry, painting or wood carving.
    They choose to reuse, buy second-hand, repair and use natural materials when selecting their tools.
