    Description

    My partner Andrew and I (Brooke) have a cattle ranch and farm. It was a former dairy and we now have 75 beef cattle, 4 mischievous goats, and many chickens/ducks. The farm is starting to produce fruit and vegetable crops as well. We live in the southern part of the Willamette Valley in Central Oregon about 20 minutes from Eugene, Oregon. It's a beautiful area surrounded by trees, mountains and nature!

    We're excited about sustainable farming and always exploring new ways to improve our land. We'd enjoy hosting someone keen on learning about agriculture and living. We would love to host individuals or a couple who are interested in this lifestyle, eager to learn and want to make a difference. If you have any other questions about our farm and what we do please don't hesitate to ask :)

    Spring 2025:
    This spring we need help with building garden beds, weeding, planting prep, and general clean up on the property which may include cleaning our chicken coop and barn out etc. If you enjoy building things and gardening then you’ll be a great fit for our spring projects!

    Workawayers won't help with any produce sold.

    Sometimes we need help with feeding the animals. We have goats, sheep, chickens, 2 barn kittens and 2 dogs so you must be comfortable with animals and be able to support us in feeding them daily :) they are all super friendly.

    You'll have your own space with a bedroom, kitchen and a private bathroom all to yourself in a smaller older apartment on the property (this is separate from our home so you must be comfortable staying on your own in this space). We will provide food for you to cook for yourself, we can make meals together a couple times a week but you will be preparing your food mostly on your own in your apartment. You will have access to laundry as well as internet.
