We have 18 acres of woods, marsh and fields. The surrounding area is rural with farming and dairies and horses in the surrounding rolling hills. We grow blueberries, raspberries, blackberries and many varieties of vegetables through the season. We also have a greenhouse. We need help with growing, harvesting and processing these foods as well as maintaining the land and grounds. There are also opportunities to build and service equipment and outbuildings and help serve some of the workshops we host. It may be possible to attend some of the workshops and retreats that are held on site.We need one or two persons as soon as possible and would suggest a minimum of two weeks stay - longer if mutually agreeable. We would expect 20 hours help a week in exchange for room and board. We can accommodate most dietary restrictions. We can provide a rustic cabin with nearby kitchen and bathroom.We speak English and a little French and Spanish. Children are welcome. We have 1 dog and chickens so accommodating other pets must be discussed beforehand.The farm is less than two hours from Washington D.C. and we can help provide transportation to the nearest train station if needed to get there and back.
