We are an intentional community of 12-ish youngish people in Lebanon, New Hampshire. While the apple orchard was planted in the 70s and 80s, there are a handful of 15 year old trees, and a lot more planted in the past few years. We now boast over 140 different edible perennials, including all the major zone 4 and 5 tree fruits (peaches, pears, plums, apricots, cherries etc) and berries (blueberries, blackberries, raspberries, black raspberries, and dozens of more obscure varieties) , as well as ample space for annual veggies and flowering ornamentals.
You'll be planting, pruning, grafting, splitting, transplanting, watering, weeding, thinning, soil amending, composting, and every other task that comes with keeping a large veggie garden and budding food forest thriving.
Comes with a lovely large platform tent (with power and wifi) or possibly your own room (depending on availability), shared bathroom and kitchen, on site parking, etc.
Your farm host has a 16-year background in experiential education and your experience is very important. We want this to be mutually beneficial and value the work, the learning, and the fun social experience.
