Using mimes, participants are asked to discover forest-related activities and occupations. The activity covers a wide range of occupations: forest warden, scientist, carpenter, woodcutter, etc. But it also includes actions linked to forest activities: jogging, planting a tree, counting game, measuring a tree, etc. It's a great way to understand the multifunctional nature of our forests!
