More details about your skills
Amy- I have experience farming organic vegetables and flowers on a small-scale farm where I was involved in every step of the process. I have strong relational skills used in the nonprofit setting with adult case management and youth programming. For many years I've worked in food service in just about every role in a restaurant. Beyond that, I am great with animals, most people, and quite adept at contra dancing!
Max-I love working with my hands! I have experience organic farming, urban farming and doing landscape construction. For the last four years I have been working in carpentry. I have been doing mostly framing and renovation work, but have some experience in cabinetry. I also have a decent knowledge of welding steel with stick and MIG processes.
My passion is making art. I love wood block printing, painting and working with textiles.
Age

What else ...
I'd really like to pick olives and learn about making olive oil! I am also interested in learning about making wine.
