  Beschreibung

  My husband grew up in this area with a long family history of ranching, our chosen life style being very different than that of ranching we have found another way to create income from the family land- hosting guests in glamping tents. We have a back ground in hospitality and have decided to host others on this beautiful land. Giving them a ranch style experience that is rooted in preservation. In converting the ranch land to glamping stays we are able to start reversing the devastation of decades of grazing. Instead of depleting our water shed we are returning all useable water back into the ground through grey water systems. In the future our gardens will help feed our guests as we close the loop in the food circle. Our goal is to provide an amazing, caring, and mindful experience than almost anyone can afford!

  Kultureller Austausch und Lernmöglichkeiten

  Learning the in's and outs of living in a very rural area with limited (external) resources teaches resilience, promotes problem solving skills, develops ingenuity and helps promote self esteem. You may also choose to learn about water preservation, homesteading, grey water systems, farm life, and alternative living situations. (We have a yurt, an outfitted school bus, tents a cabin and a tiny home all on property)

  Arbeit

  We are looking for an amazing individual or couple that would like to live rent-free for 2-3 months in our Yurt. The Yurt is on a 15-acre section of an 1100 acre ranch. It is fully outfitted for everyday life.
  
  In exchange we are looking for this individual/couple to feed and water our chickens (19 in total) and clean 3 glamping units as needed, (cleanings are paid income per clean and can be tailored). About 3-7 hours of daily with cleaning and resetting the tent/s & Cabin, no more than 5 days a week (unless more is desired). Many days maybe no more than 10-15 minutes of daily work (no cleanings). Total days off for side trips and exploration can be easily arranged.
  
  This position does require time management, problem solving skills and open and consistent dialogue. After transition we will not be on property but our son whom lives in his own tiny house will. A Vehicle will be needed.

  Hier sind Haustiere in der Regel willkommen

  Case by case basis only! Due to the nature of the business, barking, agressive behavior, wandering is not permitted. Small dogs under 5 lbs are at risk of becoming prey of hawks and buzzards. Cats don't fair well (even toms) due to the presence of coyotes.
