Most meals are vegetarian. Workawayers can expect to cook at least two meals per week for the house, and contribute to kitchen clean-up each night. Breakfast is self-serve from our kitchen; lunch and dinner are made for the whole house by one member.
  
  We are located in a rural area! Staff can provide transportation to the farm from White River Jct, VT or Plymouth, NH for volunteers without a car.
