The only problem I have with making people do them types of work is that's what you do for community service so effectively your punishing people for being on benefits.

A better thing would be stick them in a charity shop you could never do that on community service and other things you can't do on community service

I don't really view community service as a punishment given that most people's actual jobs are far more arduous.
It's only really a punishing for people too lazy to get off their arses and do something constructive as they're not used to it.

I do however see your point about it perhaps overlapping with community service, however is having a huge range of people to maintain the local community necessarily a bad thing? I'm not sure, I do admit the system I suggested would take some serious thought to implement correctly, but then what social policy doesn't I suppose?
