  Aide

  Interns, apprentices, helpers, volunteers, & those that help to keep the place going.”
  
  We depend greatly upon the various working relationships it develops each year through the people that come to stay and learn with us. We have many opportunities for those wishing to explore this lifestyle. We can use help all season long for various tasks on a volunteer basis from April throughout October .
  
  If you are interested in coming here and feel that you have something to offer while receiving the many benefits of what we have to offer you, please feel free.to contact us with your ideas.
  
  Remember though...... no former experience required; however, we need self starters with a "do everything" attitude and not afraid of hard work, with a sincere, long-term interest in a more sustainable way of living. You must enjoy nature and common sense is very important. There are often bugs to contend with and we must sometimes work in the rain. :-)

  Possibilité d’accueillir les digital nomads

  This place would be a great spot for such a thing as we're not busy and looking for more of a helper in all ways with regular daily living and tasks while living on a homestead with nature & peace. However This will happen once Covid 19 can be managed.
