Current Environmental Stewardship Initiatives
Our annual operations focus on concrete environmental maintenance and community utility across the 1,850 hectares of our municipal perimeter.
Spring Wildlife Demographic Census
Volunteers and trained field monitors traverse designated transect routes at dawn to observe and record populations of roe deer, wild hares, and partridge broods. The census provides biological evidence to determine ecological equilibrium and guide seasonal quotas.
Communal Trail Maintenance & Clearance
Workdays organized with local residents to trim back invasive brambles, clear fallen timber following winter storms, and restore eroded trail footing along public walking and cycling paths across Villejoubert.
2026 Official Events & Public Assemblies Calendar

Guidelines for Workshop & Workday Participants
To guarantee safety, mutual respect, and maximum community benefit, the Amicale des Chasseurs de Villejoubert enforces a straightforward code of conduct across all civic activities and field sessions:
1. Safety Equipment & Attire
Participants in outdoor workdays must wear sturdy boots and weather-appropriate clothing. During field census operations, high-visibility fluorescent vests are provided and mandatory.
2. Ecological Respect
We operate with strict environmental care: zero littering, careful handling of native vegetation, and quiet observation around nesting zones to minimize wildlife disturbance.
3. Inclusive Civic Spirit
Our events are open to all community members regardless of prior experience. Knowledgeable team leaders provide orientation and support to every newcomer.
Funding Transparency Statement: All activities organized by the Amicale are strictly non-commercial. In accordance with our non-profit statutes: "All membership fees and dues are fully reinvested in the association's public interest missions." We charge no admission fees for public workshops, educational materials, or community work sessions.
