    Description

    Hello and welcome. We are a family of 3, living off grid living about 10km upriver from Dawson City, in the old agricultural area called Sunnydale. Access is by the Yukon River or by the Top of the World Hwy.
    We grow our own food, gather our firewood and berries and hunt for our own wild meat.
    We also keep 12 dogs, who act as pets and sleddogs for transportation and adventure in winter.
    We have many DIY projects on the go, including a log addition to our current home, which we are looking for helpful and talented hands to come join us this sumner and get things done, while having fun!

    Other projects include, brushing, painting, fencing and general property maintenance.

    Childcare is an asset on an occasional basis.
    Cooking skills and having the ability in taking the initiative is also an asset and important.
    It's all about teamwork here!

    *** currently looking for help with plants & animals over spring breakup.

    Contact us with your story and what you can ad to ours.

    Thanks in advance for your interest.

    Small off grid cabin 8x10 with a covered porch for additional living space. Good for individuals or happy couples.
    We also have a guest house, when not occupied can be available to workawayers as well.

    Guest will be given the option to eat 3x meals a day onsite, if helping minimum 4-6hrs/day and 4-5 days/week. However we usually only guarantee 1 of those 3 meals to be prepared and shared together because of changing projects and kid schedules ect. Guests will be given the opportunity to eat out of garden and cook in their accommodation when not eating in the main house with us. A variety of dietary food needs can be accommodated, especially if the quest is willing to prepare their own food.
