    Description

    We are a small farm and learning center. We grow food with no chemicals, no till, and little water. We are what I call AARP farmers and we need help with more physical projects. We have a very playful Australian Cattle dog who always wants to play stick, frisbee, or herding ball. We have a Labyrinth in our woods,Native American Medicine Wheel and Fairy Grove on the farm.We have close to 60 chickens .We teach home school groups and people of all ages regenerative growing methods, Medicine Wheel, and we offer classes and workshops on a variety of topics .
    We are also currently looking for local workawayers who may just want to try a night or two at our farm.
    We have tasks to prep for Spring planting. We have limited openings.
    We have rustic accommodations, including an outhouse . We really need help right now moving piles of weeds to the woods. Due to any injury , it's hard to move the wheelbarrows but I can pull them just great.
