  Description

  Live, Work & Explore in Remote Desolation Sound
  Tucked away in the breathtaking coastal wilderness of Desolation Sound, BC, our family is seeking hands-on, hardworking Workawayers to help us with exciting projects this spring. We’re a husband-and-wife team (now with a newborn in tow!) running a seasonal restaurant and art gallery while maintaining our off-grid homestead.
  
  We live on 180+ acres of pristine land, shared by a small island community, accessible only by boat or floatplane. Spring is a busy and fulfilling time as we prepare for summer, and we’d love your help bringing our vision to life!
