  • Descrição

    Descrição

    We are a small ambitious mixed farm with a diverse base: We run a well-established edible plant nursery, a sawmill and woodlot, large orchards, large gardens, a few animals, and we always have a few building projects on the go:

    Right now we are looking for help with renovating a tiny home to be slightly less tiny, building a sauna, laying the ground work for an outdoor event space and milling all the boards that are required for these projects! So people with energy and practical skills would be very much appreciated. You can check out our website but the nursery itself is somewhat on the backburner for the season and we don't need any help with it.

    We want to focus on the farm and subsistence instead. We have a few households here and two big boisterous Maremma LGD dogs and a golden doodle.

    The community on the farm (4 households) and on Denman Island as a whole is very welcoming. There is an abundance of outdoor exploring, foraging, and free thinking folks to inspire you. We live adjacent to a very large network of forest parks and nature reserves and only a 5 min drive to the Pacific Ocean.

  • Acomodação

    Acomodação

    Accommodation is a tiny house constructed using local materials. It has a kitchen, electric heater, electricity, running water. It has lots of character and is nice and cozy for 1-2 people. There is one bed. You will have an outdoor composting toilet. Hot water shower. A private covered patio area is also yours to enjoy. This is the structure that we are currenting in the process of enlarging and adding amenities to, including an indoor hot shower and toilet.

    During the warm season we can also accommodate more campers in a nice quiet area by the marsh that we are currently developing into a more full service campground and event space.

    We provide a great diet of food produced from the land and quality food from the store. We produce our own venison, fish, eggs, fruit, vegetables and grain. We buy other organic staples from the store. Don't expect any processed or packaged foods. Generally we share lunch and some dinners together and otherwise set people up to do their own breakfasts and easy dinners in their own kitchen.
