I had a wonderful time doing this in the previous winter. I want to do it again. To sum it up:
WHAT: a volunteer for 3 to 5 days
WHEN: February 2026, estimated dates below.
WHERE: see the maps below... The date listed on the map indicates when I will likely be in the shaded-purple area on that map.
More details noted after the map images. These are important.
(Week 3 is mostly-booked already... Contact me ASAP if you're in the area and are interested in receiving my help!)
The Details and Important Notes:
- No, I can't be everywhere. I am "snowbirding" and don't have an all-terrain vehicle. That's why I'm avoiding generally-cold and snow-covered areas on this trip.
- No, unfortunately I can't accept every invite. Please don't take it personally.
- That being said: first come, first served.
-
The only thing I request in exchange is a place to sleep (out of the precipitation) and vegetarian food to eat. Coffee will also be of tremendous help.
- I'm not some permaculture guru. I can make no promises. However, I am very willing to put in some hard work to help you with your existing or soon-to-be-existing homestead and permaculture projects. Maybe my BEL thread can clue you in to some of the things I've accomplished and helped with over the past couple years at Wheaton Labs.
Click here to have a look. I also had a wonderful experience in 2025, and took some photos showing our projects.
- "Three is the magic number." I think three days at your site is what I can manage, though if my schedule turns out to be light, then I may be able to stay longer.
- It's unlikely I will be able to bring many tools with me on this trip. Please have what you need for me to do some tasks for you already on-site.

This is not WWOOF or HelpX. I am not a Boot or the High Commander while at your place. This is a personal project. We will make our own rules and guidelines.
Please send me a PM if you think I can be of help to you when I'm in your area. Thanks for reading...!
