  • Help

    Help

    We have twins on the way so we are expecting to fall behind in many areas around our home and property. We are open to different skill sets. There is always work to do on the property, between gardening, landscaping, tending to animals and bees, building projects, small renos, chopping firewood, etc.
    If someone was more inclined to help with housework, canning, cooking, baking, cleaning, homeschooling kids, helping with babies, etc that would also be great.
    We are always learning and open to incorporating whatever skills or interests you may have, and sharing all that we have learned.

  • Accommodation

    Accommodation

    We have 100 sq ft bunkie cabin with a king bed in the loft. It is private with its own deck, composting outhouse, outdoor shower, and basic cooking area (fridge, hot plate, running sink). It would work well for a single or couple or very close friends as sleeping arrangements are king bed and a pull out futon.
    Beautiful views, private and peaceful. Comfortably set up with all the basics.
    We can provide full access to food in the garden, farm fresh eggs, our fresh baked sourdough, and home grown meat. You are able to cook meals on your own or share meals with us, and we would love to try your traditional meals as well. We are flexible on food arrangements but it will always be provided.
