SMALL ORGANIC PERMACULTURE FARM
1 month minimum stay
About us: the Farm is a co-operative permaculture farm, and a community of 3 families who value and practice yoga, wholistic therapies, conscious parenting, wholistic education, hand crafting and self sufficiency skills and technologies.
We have an organic veggie growing CSA garden, an heirloom seedlings nursery, and an events space focusing on arts, crafts, permaculture education and wellbeing.
We have 4 goats, lots of chickens, and are planting a food forest and fruit orchards.

We have found that people who are interested in permaculture, intentional community living, wholistic health and wellbeing, yoga, arts and crafts as a sacred practice, and earth stewardship get the most value from their stay here. There are ample opportunities to share and apply your gifts and explore your passions in very real ways.
This project could involve children. For more information see our guidelines and tips here.

1 month minimum stay is our preference
*️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️*️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️*️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️We are currently seeking helpers to help us build new helper accommodation using natural environmental building techniques so an interest in this would be great, but also need help with general gardening tasks, a weekly harvest of our veggies and with general care of our animals.
Our small organic permaculture farm would love your contribution assisting with planting/propagating, looking after animals and helping build infrastructure based on sustainable and recycling principles.
We regularly host seasonal community events where helpers contributions are always appreciated.
Some meals are self catered and others are shared with families.
This is winter season here, so be prepared with the cold with having appropriating clothing.
