Plans are underway to incorporate the farm into a small ecovillage. we also have an on farm airbnb. WWOOFers would work in all phases of our no till production and also have the opportunity to learn about Green Buildings and Renewable Energy. Accommodations vary but most include a private room and all include organic food, vegetarian, vegan, or gluten free meals can be provided. English and Hungarian are spoken and there is no smoking in the house. We can provide clothes and a bicycle and periodic trips to New York City. The minimum stay is two weeks, but we accept WWOOFers for the entire season. We need help beginning in April and running through November.
