  Description

  Hello!
  
  Thank you for reading this and we hope you will join us! We are looking for an extra pair of hands to pack up after a season of Farmstay experience in Upstate NY. It will be easy fun work including packing up furniture and putting to bed the garden, winterizing the goat and duck homes, and we would love to share the surrounding area on weekends.
  
  We're working on an outdoor glamping / ecovillage experience by giving new life and creativity to the land. In past years, with the help of volunteers, we have built platforms for our bell tents, an outdoor kitchen, solar shower, composting toilets, and planted a huge garden!
  
  A 2 week stay works best, anytime from now until the end of November. Please reach out with any questions! We like to host a couple of people at a time for the most fun and nurturing experience.
  
  Skills & interests can range from outdoor building, permaculture, landscaping, decorating, art & photography, cooking, solar energy and composting. Manual labor will definitely be involved! We work hard during the days if the weather is right, and help cook and enjoy meals together. There is a yoga studio open to use as well if you have a personal practice.
  
  Located in upstate NY, the town is a 2.5 hour drive from NYC. There's an amtrak train line for transportation into the city as well, and bikes on the property. Lots of rolling hills and nearby farms, swimming holes, and good vibes.
  
  Thanks for reading!

  Aide

  Exchange is room and 3 meals a day for a full help day, weekends off. Flexible on schedule to make it work for everyone. We have some semi-experienced builders and farmers to work with. Let me know what your specialties are, and we'll find a good fit.
  
  Tasks range, but mainly light building and eco building techniques will be used. Outside, working in nature, and caring for the land. OR a child care position or a mix of all. There will be a nice community to participate in.
  
  Experienced builders are encouraged but not required! Gardners, cooks, landscapers, and general handy people are all helpful! Thank you :)))
