Description
We have an organic vegetable farm where we host guests (Glampers & primitive tent campers). We also have a farm to table restaurant/art & gift gallery and some other buildings in our town that are undergoing restoration and renovation. We operate year round in the heart of the Pennsylvania Wilds. We're looking for workawayers who will help with restoration/renovation projects, our eco/agro tourism ventures, and our organic vegetable farm. We may be looking for a chef and/or cook in the future too.

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
We provide a fun & educational working environment. Furthermore, it is an extremely worthwhile endeavor to be a part of. We feel most people have become seriously disconnected from the food they consume and nature in general and for many reasons want to change that. While doing so, you can enjoy farm life, rural living, nature, & the stars in the beautiful Pennsylvania Wilds.

What else ...
Our area is most known for having the darkest skies on the East coast, so star gazing is our most popular attraction. We have a private stargazing field on our farm. We are situated right between two nature lovers' destinations: the Kinzua Skywalk and the Pennsylvania Grand Canyon. Our county has more state parks than any other county in Pennsylvania & natural beauty & outdoor recreation pursuits abound!
We want our Workawayers to have an enjoyable, safe, educational, & fruitful time with us in our beautiful natural environs!
